PO 42: Calculate lime application rates to meet lime requirements. Lime recommendations are given in 100% ENV. To convert to lime recommendation for a particular material, some calculations must be done. Lime rate (tons/acre) = 100 x lime rate for 100% ENV (tons/acre) / ENV of material. For example: soil test recommendation is 1.5 tons ...

O) is less than 6.00, a lime requirement measurement is performed (called a buffer pH) and a calculation of t/Ha lime (at 90% NV) is reported to bring soil pH back above 6. If pH >6, this test is not completed. The following list of explanations follows the order of these analytes and calculations on a typical complete expressSoil report.

The amount of lime to apply depends on three main factors; neutralising value, fineness of the lime and soil texture. Neutralising value (NV) NV tells you the lime's capacity to neutralise soil acidity. Pure calcium carbonate has NV of 100, which is the standard. Ideally, NV should be over 95.

Summary. Lime is used to increase soil pH to optimal levels (6.0-6.8) for plant growth. Lime recommendations are given when soil pH values drop below critical thresholds that cause expected yield reduction. Critical thresholds vary by crop tolerance such that lime is recommended for legumes at pH<6.0 and grasses at pH<5.3.

3. Lime Requirement Calculations. The primary purpose of the LBC method is to determine the lime requirement (LR) of a soil to adjust it to the desired pH level. An LR is calculated based on three factors: 1) the soil's initial pH, 2) the desired or target pH and 3) the soil's LBC (in the current method, it is LBC Eq). The LR is typically ...

It calculates the amount of lime required to reach a target pH but to maintain it. The target soil pH for the 0-10cm is 5.5 to 6.0, if aiming to achieve lime movement or growing acid sensitive pulses, and pH 4.8 deeper in the soil to avoid Al toxicity. Step 1. Pure lime requirement (t/ha) = (Target pH - Current pH) ÷ Conversion factor

Lime requirements of crops grown on acid soils are determined by the quality of material, status of soil fertility, crop species and cultivar within species, crop management practices, and economic considerations. Soil pH, base saturation, and aluminum saturation are important acidity indices that are used to determine .

For soil with pH under 6.8, the lime index usually falls between 70 and 60. No lime will be recommended if the lime index is above 70. As lime index decreases below 70, more lime is needed to bring soil pH up to the target level. Soil with a greater reserve acidity (lower lime index number) has more capacity to resist change in pH.

Soil pH buffering, which along with soil pH determines lime requirement, is dependent on several soil characteristics such as carbon content, clay content and type, aluminium chemistry of the soil matrix and cation exchange capacity, all of which are individually measurable in the laboratory (but collectively very expensive and time consuming).
