Applications of lime for agriculture from the Fassa Bortolo – Lime System

Hydrated and quicklime in agriculture: lime for healthy, productive soils

Lime application using quicklime or hydrated lime is an essential agronomic practice that makes a real difference to crops. With a Calcium Carbonate Equivalence (CCE) of 179, Fassa Bortolo quicklime stands out as a highly efficient liming mineral. In addition to correcting soil acidity, it significantly improves soil structure, promoting better air and water circulation.

Agricultural lime: all applications

Lime for pH correction in soils raises pH levels, increasing the availability of essential nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. Agricultural lime also immobilises heavy metals and optimises calcium and magnesium uptake, resulting in higher crop productivity.

Slaked lime in agriculture is a natural and effective solution for correcting acidic soils, improving nutrient uptake and enhancing soil structure for healthier, more productive crops.

Our lime gives farmers optimal pH control and improves the chemical-physical properties of the soil, key to maximising crop yields.
