Optimize your crop yield by ensuring the right pH level, good soil structure, and proper nutrient content. We offer agricultural lime and soil lime to help you achieve an optimal pH level that promotes healthy growth in your crops.
With the right pH level, good soil structure, and the right nutrient content, you as a farmer can achieve optimal crop growth. To help your crops absorb nutrients more easily and ensure you get a better product, you need to make sure your farmland has an optimal pH level.
What is the optimal pH level?
It used to be believed that a pH of 6.5 was optimal, but new research shows that the optimal pH is 7.0. If the pH is too low, it is easier for plants to absorb toxic heavy metals, which in turn results in a lower-quality product.
What effects does lime have on farmland?
- Benefits the structure (the plants' access to water and air)
- Make nutrients available to plants
- Provides magnesium and calcium
- Reduces cadmium uptake
- Supports earthworms, nitrate-oxidizing bacteria, and nitrogen-fixing bacteria
We offer bothMesakalkandagricultural limeto ensure that your farmland maintains an optimal pH level. Mesakalk raises the soil’s pH level, which contributes to increased root growth, improved availability of other nutrients, and higher-quality, faster-growing crops. Agricultural lime balances the soil’s pH level and creates better conditions for plant growth. The product is approved for use on KRAV- and Eco-certified farms.
We also offersoil conditionerthat gives your clay-rich soils a more porous structure and better infiltration, leading to both increased yields and reduced phosphorus leaching. If applied correctly, the effects are long-lasting—up to 50 years—and result in more even and improved drying.
