Application Techniques for Soil Amendments
Lime is applied to farmland to decrease soil acidity, which helps raise the pH level and improves the soil’s ability to support plant growth. This method is widely used to promote healthy crop development by optimizing the availability of essential nutrients and balancing soil conditions.
Gypsum is distributed across fields to restore the proper ratios of calcium and magnesium. It also adds sulfur to the soil, benefiting plant health.
Chicken Litter is used when phosphorus levels are low to improve soil fertility and quality. In addition to the key macronutrients—nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K)—poultry manure provides calcium, magnesium, sulfur, and a variety of micronutrients.
