LIMESTONE (Calcium) (1kg)

Used for ph adjustment and calcium addition.

Agricultural limestone is primarily used to neutralize acidic soils and optimize soil pH for better crop yields. By raising soil alkalinity, it boosts the availability of vital nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium while supplying plants with essential calcium.

Beyond soil pH correction, agricultural limestone serves several other essential purposes:

• Nutrient Source: It provides vital calcium for healthy plant development.

• Improves Soil Structure: It helps break down dense clay layers, reduces surface crusting, and improves water penetration and drainage.

• Toxicity Reduction: It mitigates aluminium and manganese toxicity that can stunt plant growth in highly acidic environments.

• Boosts Nitrogen Fixation: It creates a favorable environment for bacteria in legumes, supporting natural nitrogen-fixing.

• Industrial and Infrastructure Uses: Outside of farming, it is utilized in power plants to reduce emissions, and as a base aggregate for driveways and farm tracks.
