Its fine texture and high incidence of CaO³ (a minimum of 80% guaranteed) exceed the prescribed levels for registration as a fertilizer. Add lime to acid soil, and you raise the pH value. The result? You lift the calcium level of the soil, you accelerate micro-biological activity and you increase the rate at which organic matter and nutrient elements are released by the soil. More phosphorous and nitrogen become available to the plant.
