that one can get soybean seed that is geneticlly engineered for high alkaline soils. Which means you don't have to lime your soil. My dad is retired from farming for like 10 years now, I never pursued it, I followed my own dreams, anyway, we got to talking about my food plot, and I was telling him my soil tested high in alkaline, and needed around 2 tons per acre of lime, and he told me why don't I just buy the beans for high alkaline soil.I never knew, I guess if they can make them round up ready which they never use to be, then I guess they can engineer them for high alk. soils. just a thought for you guys who have some soil that is higher than you like, and are looking for options. Contact your local seed dealers and ask for it. hope this helps...........
