Agricultural lime is a soil amendment product used to condition soil by raising pH levels. It is made from crushed limestone that contains natural elements to promote healthy plant growth. When lime is added to agricultural crops, it dissolves and releases a base that counteracts or neutralizes soil acidity.
Benefits of liming include increased nutrient availability, improved soil structure, and increased rates of infiltration.
