This scientific study investigates the impact of highly calcareous soils on the growth and ash composition of specific plant species. The author's findings provide valuable insights for agricultural researchers and practitioners seeking to optimize crop yields in calcareous soil environments.

Excerpt from The Effect of Strongly Calcareous Soils on the Growth and Ash Composition of Certain Plants There is, however, an extensive literature on calciphilous and calcifugous plants, which for the most part consists of observations on the occurrence or nonoccurrence of plants on calcareous soils.1 These studies, which have afforded rather conflicting results, seem to Show that there are a very few plants which never occur naturally on calcareous soils, but the Observations do not Show with certainty whether this is due to the physical or chemical character Of the soils. There are also some culture experiments which show that some plants, as certain varieties of lupines,2 sphagnum moss,...
