The importance of this fact can hardly be overemphasized in relation to forage production because of the high nitrogen requirements of intensively managed grass forages and the disappearance at competitive price of any but residually acid sources of nitrogen from the commercial fertilizer market. The soil acidity-plant growth relationship is extremely complex, and it is often impossible to ascribe poor plant growth to a single specific cause. Uniform mixing of limestone into the soil is required for a rapid rate of reaction with acid soil. Legume response to lime on acid soils is complicated by the effect on both the host plant and the symbiotic nitrogen-fixing bacteria. References Abruna, Fernando, Robert W. Pearson, and Charles B.
