ਅਣਬੁਝਿਆ ਚੂਨਾ (Slaked lime)

ਬੁਝਿਆ ਚੂਨਾ (Quick lime)

ਜੈਵ ਪਦਾਰਥ (Organic matter)

ਕੈਲੇਮਾਈਨ ਘੋਲ (Calamine solution)

​

Answer 1

Answer:

organic matter. It is the correct answer

Answer 2

Organic matter is used to remove the problem.

Basicity of soil refers to high pH. This is characterized by presence of high amount of basic ions. Slaked lime and quick lime are hydroxide rich entities, and hence can not lower the pH of basic soil. Therefore, they can not be added.

Organic matter lowers the pH and hence can be used to solve the problem. Wood chips and sawdust can be used for the purpose.
