Benefits of Liming & Agricultural Gypsum
Agricultural liming: - Increases the pH in acidic soils
- Provides calcium and magnesium vital to crop growth
- Enhances water penetration of the soil
- Improves the absorption of essential plant nutrients
Gypsum: - Provides calcium to soil without increasing the pH
- Removes excess sodium in the soil
- Increases crop yields by improving soil moisture content, germination, root growth and the uptake of crucial plant nutrients
- Optimises the cultivation period
- Enhances water infiltration of the soil
Why Use Agricultural Lime & Gypsum? A high percentage of South Africa’s land requires agricultural liming due to high acidity levels. Agricultural lime’s main purpose is to correct the soil’s pH and place vital nutrients back in the soil. Gypsum puts calcium back in the soil without affecting the pH and removes excess sodium in the soil.
