Actually most soils really are low in N, unless they have been fertilized recently. As microbes break down organics it becomes available, and is quickly snatched up by whatever is growing there. It just naturally doesnt stick around very long in the soil. Get the soil biology right, and the microbes will keep a steady supply to the plants. Otherwise, it will have to be added as fertilizer.
