Part 3: Soil Additives
- Test different soil additives on three different crops (corn, wheat, soybeans) to see which combination produces the highest crop yield.
- Record data on crop yield, soil pH, and nutrient levels for each crop and soil additive combination.
- Analyze data to determine the most effective soil additives for each crop.
- Consider environmental impact of soil additives in addition to crop yield.
