Tropics The Soil Tends: In the humid tropics the soil tends to be acidic. Where this is excessive, lime is added to reduce the acidity rather than correct a deficiency. Ground limestone is one of the most effective and cheapest materials that can be applied for this purpose.This group of mammals is made up of some of the most curious creatures to be found in nature. In it are the anteaters, animals native to the American tropics, with a tubelike mouth through which a sticky tongue works collecting insects from the ground; sloths, also native to the tropics, which spend their lives hanging by their toes from limbs of trees in which they live; and the armadillo, an animal which lives encased in its own armor.
Native to the Indo-Malayan region, the mango has spread to all parts of the tropics, and has often been referred to as, the apple of the tropics. While it is of major importance in nearly all tropical countries, its commercial culture has not developed extensively except in India, where there are large plantings in orchard form, some of which are several hundred years old. The fruit is consumed mainly in the fresh form, but also finds widespread use in cooked dishes and pickles and preserves. Pineapple (Ananas comosus). |
