Pelletized Lime Production: A Detailed How-to Guide
Why pelletized lime is better?
In contrast, pelletized limestone has significant benefits:
-
Easier to spread: Pelletized lime is heavier and less affected by wind. It can be evenly distributed on the soil surface and absorbed more effectively.
- Less pollution: Pelletized limes consistent size and shape produce less dust, making it environmentally friendly.
- Increased nutrient absorption: Pelletized lime decomposes easily, providing long-term pH adjustment, and improving soil water retention and stability.
- Convenient transportation: Pelletized lime has higher density and smaller volume, making it less prone to caking. It is easier to handle and transport compared to powdered lime.
