Explanation:
If soil consists of more acidic nature then, it does not allow plant growth.
In that situation, treat the soil with (anti-acid which is nothing but) base.
When an acid reacts with a base, a neutralization reaction takes place and salt and water are formed in this reaction.
The equation is shown below:
acid+base-> salt +water
For example, if the soil has more sulphuric acid traces then, it should be treated with lime.
