The Benefits of Agricultural Lime
By providing high-quality lime products tailored to the needs of farmers in Victoria and beyond, Brucknell Lime stands as a cornerstone in agricultural soil management, facilitating healthier and more productive crop yields.
Our Lime Gets Results
Brucknell Lime, nestled in the heart of Brucknell, Victoria, specialises in providing top-quality lime for agricultural purposes. Soil acidity, caused by excess hydrogen ions in the soil solution, can hinder crop growth. However, when farmers apply agricultural lime, the carbonate found in calcium carbonate effectively neutralises this acidity. The efficacy of lime in neutralising acidity is determined by its carbonate content, which is expressed as a percentage relative to pure lime carbonate, with a standard value of 100%.
Specific Benefits
- Enhanced soil pH promotes the availability of essential plant nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium.
- Increased biological activity among soil microbes leads to more efficient nutrient recycling.
- Stimulated plant root growth enhances the plant's ability to absorb water and nutrients from the soil.
- Elevated activity of Rhizobia bacteria contributes to improved legume production in pasture swards.
- Reduced available aluminium and manganese levels in the soil can further boost pasture production.
