Sell Life+ Calcium Carbonate (Super Fine Apog/Garden Lime) best price

Apog or agricultural lime, is a soil conditioner made from crushed limestone or dolomitic limestone. Agricultural lime works by dissolving and releasing a base that lowers the acidity of the soil. For crops growing in less-than-ideal acidity conditions, agricultural lime can boost a farmer’s profit potential by providing a number of benefits, including improving fertiliser efficiency by as much as 50 percent. Benefits Of Agriculture Lime: 🌱Improving the physical, chemical and biological properties of the soil 🌱Promoting better nitrogen fixation by legumes 🌱Increasing the availability of nutrients to plants 🌱Reducing toxicities in the soil 🌱Enhancing the effectiveness of some herbicides 🌱Supplying calcium, magnesium and other minerals to crops How and when to apply lime: Lime can be incorporated into the soil or simply top-dressed and left to leach into the soil with subsequent rainfall. Lime application at sowing: Lime is relatively insoluble (does not dissolve easily). Thus, it is slow to react. For maximum benefit, it should be worked into the soil when resowing a pasture or sowing a summer fodder crop. Lime application as a top dressing: Lime can be applied as a topdressing (in other words, spread on uncultivated soil or existing pasture) if a paddock is to remain in the pasture phase for several years
