The efficiency of carbonated lime on soil acidity neutralization

The aim of our investigation was to estimate the efficiency of carbonated lime on soil PHKCI changes and oat productivity. The experiment carried out at Vezaiciai Branch of Lithuanian Research Centre for Agriculture and Forestry in 2015. 700 kg ha"1 and 1000 kg ha"1 carbonated lime rate was used in the experiment. According to the results of investigations, soil PHKCI showed a slight decrease then lime was applied. As lime was applied late (second half of June),it should be valuable to repeat soil analysis next spring, with the aim to evaluate the final effect on soil pH. Due to be late application time the effect of lime on oat yield was not noticedVytauto Didžiojo universitetasŽemės ūkio akademij
