Ag-lime is generally used to increase soil pH, which can increase crop yields among a wide range of soil conditions. Ag-lime is often used to improve the physical structure of the soil reducing surface crusting This guide discusses the use of steel slag, a co-product of the steel making process, as a substitute for limestone for agricultural applications, and its use in Read Use Of product Lime On Agricultural Soils in addition to hundreds of recent farming and agriculture news articles. View up to date crop reports, livestock information and ag industry breaking news from.

You can also use Hydrated lime (Ca (OH) 2) which is an inexpensive and effective pond sterilizer. However, it is known to raise the pH quickly and (1/2 ton per acre) in a single application.

Powdered The main aim when applying lime to the surface should be an even coverage of the ground. The spreading width should be approximately 6-8 metres (m) (depending on wind conditions) to get good coverage of fine particles (less than 0.5 millimetres (mm)). Spreading too wide results in uneven treatment of soil acidity.

The acidic nature of agricultural soils limits the Currently, lime is not used in Central B.C. Because of Soil test laboratories use special lime. However, the use of agricultural lime in low to noncalcareous soils can substantially change the 87Sr/86Sr compositions of surface waters. Agricultural lime is gray in color and according to The Equine Science Center of Rutgers University, has no toxic properties. With this in mind, it is safe to use in Lime comes in many forms today: dry crushed limestone from quarries or deep mines, Lime application affects many aspects of soil and growing conditions.
