The gardeners and farmers usually turn the soil near the base of the plant, so that air and water circulation would be efficient for the roots of the plants.

Why is neutralisation important to farmers?

When the unfortnate event of acidic soil strike some farms, plants are unable to grow. Using slakes of lime which is a base cancels out the acid in the soil. You need to check the righ amount of acidity in the soil in order to put the same amount of base so that you do not over do it and keep it neutral. This process is called NEUTRALISATION. After the lime is inserted the acidity will fade away and the plants will grow. (ACIDIC SOIL + NEUTRALISATION = *HAPPY FARMER*) Hope this helped you!:D


Why farmers need to know how basic or acidic the soil?

Plants grow better in soil with the PH (acid-base) they have adapted to. The acidity or the alkalinity of the soil is important to know in order to grow a particular plant. Some plants want a acidic soil and some want a basic soil. However, most plants prefer a neutral to slightly alkaline soil. So, it is important for the farmers to know what type of soil it is in order to balance or neutralize the soil. They should know what type of inorganic substance/fertilizer to add in order to neutralize the soil.
