Soil requirements for Philippine crops

Requested from DA by G. Grafe at 10:35 AM on Jan 30, 2024.
Purpose: Research and development
Date of Coverage: 01/30/2024 - 01/30/2024
Tracking no: #DA-509335507763

Grafe 10:35 AM, Jan 30, 2024 

There is data from the Philippine Statistics Authority (PSA) that lists the crops produced in the Philippines. Is there a book or any data source that provides information on the soil requirements (soil texture and pH level) for each crop? For example:
Crop: Banana
Best Soil Texture: Clay Loam, Loam
Preferable pH Level: 5.5 - 6.5
I prefer the data which at least shows soil texture and pH level.
