A lot of suburbs in Victoria have proven to have soil that is ALKALINE IN NATURE. With most of them having high alkaline soil, a balance has been sought to replace missing elements needed for better gardens, which have been introduced to old and new suburbs.
The availability of Phosphorus and Trace Elements like Iron, Manganese, Copper, Zinc and Boron needs to be increased, as alkaline soil does not produce these through its natural process.
