[[Soil]] with a [[pH]] value higher than 7.3 is normally referred to as alkaline. This soil property can occur naturally, due to the presence of alkali salts. Although some plants do prefer slightly basic soil (including [[vegetable]]s like [[cabbage]] and [[fodder]] like [[buffalograss]]), most plants prefer a mildly [[acidic]] soil (pH between 6.0 and 6.8), and alkaline soils can cause problems.{{wp}}
