Lime and Limestone in Agriculture

We produce a wide range of lime-based products used in agriculture. These products are most often referred to as ‘ag-lime’.

Ag-lime is generally used to increase soil pH, which can increase crop yields among a wide range of soil conditions. Ag-lime is often used to improve the physical structure of the soil by reducing surface crusting, increasing water retention, and reducing soil erosion. Lime treatment helps crops to better tolerate drought and/or wet conditions by increasing both root penetration and water percolation through the soil.
