Abstract/Contents:Defines an "investigation of the nutrient-cation status and needs of 20 of New Jersey's most important agricultural soils led to publication of the following tentative statement (1): For the ideal soil, it is suggested that 65 per cent of the exchange complex should be occupied by Ca, 10 percent by Mg, 5 percent by K, and 20 per cent by H. This statement emphasizes the importance of Ca per se. It also infers that consideration must be given to the ratios between the amounts of the several exhange cations." Continues with "Date from which the foregoing conclusion was reached were obtained in a seris of studies that have been under way since 1940. Some of the results of these studies have been published. The purpose of this paper is to bring the findings up to date."
