"Right Use of Lime in Soil Improvement" by Alva Agee is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book provides an in-depth exploration of the role that lime plays in enhancing soil quality, particularly focusing on how its application can correct soil acidity and improve agricultural productivity. Agee draws upon extensive research and practical experiences to guide farmers in the effective use of lime. In this book, Alva Agee outlines the chemical and physical processes related to lime's interaction with the soil, detailing the effects of soil acidity on plant growth and the essential nature of lime as a nutrient. The text covers various forms of lime, methods of testing for acidity, and guidelines for effective application.
