Hi in answer to the question there are a few answers as clay loams have a different pH depending on what they are being used for. For grass, clayloam has a recommended pH of between 6.0 and 6.2 and on arable land for crops etc between 6.5 and 6.7 however depending on what has been spread or added to the clay loam can effect its pH dramatically. Hope this helps a little
any soil can be acidic to a point where lime is necessary. the difference in soil textures relates to how much lime is needed. ie a sandy loam would need less lime to get the same results that a lot of lime would do in a clay loam. check you soil pH first

Lome is contained by equal amounts of sand, silt, clay, and organic matter.
Loam soil holds more water than clay soil. This is because loam soil is a mixture of sand, silt, and clay, which allows for better drainage and moisture retention compared to pure clay soil, which tends to compact and hold water tightly.
Sugarcane grows best in well-drained soils that are rich in organic matter and nutrients. Ideal soil types for sugarcane cultivation are sandy loam, loam, and clay loam soils. The pH of the soil should be between 5.5 and 8.0 for optimal growth.

Loam soil is better

Loam is a soil type that is a mixture of sand, silt, and clay, with good drainage and nutrient retention. Clay, on the other hand, is a type of soil with very fine particles that compact easily, has poor drainage, and tends to hold nutrients tightly. Clay soil is often denser and heavier than loam soil.
The generic scientific name for it is "loam". It is soil with a good balance of sand, silt and clay, and relatively rich in organic matter.
The c value for clay-loam soil can vary depending on the specific characteristics of the soil, such as its organic content, mineral composition, and overall texture. In general, clay-loam soils tend to have c values ranging from 0.05 to 0.20. It is best to consult local soil survey data or a soil scientist for a more precise c value for a specific clay-loam soil.
