AG Limestone is an agent added to soil to help raise the pH without adding trace amounts of magnesium like Dolomite Lime. This Limestone contains 4% magnesium compared to Dolomite which is approximately 14% magnesium. Ag Lime contains aragonite which is a crystal form of Calcium Carbonate, Calcium carbonate is water soluble while magnesium is not.

Acid soils cause significant losses in production and biomass, which restricts the ability to sequester carbon. Applying agricultural lime to these problem soils can correct acidity levels that restrict root growth and crop and pasture production. We provide this information to support land manager decisions about investing in carbon farming.

How does granular Ag Lime work? The most widely used Ag lime is primarily in the form of calcium carbonate.. Once the granular lime is applied, the acid in the soil attacks the lime and slowly dissolves the lime particle allowing it to release the carbonate and calcium into the soil. The carbonate then binds with hydrogen in the soil which in turn neutralizes the acid and buffers the soil pH.

Lime Recommendations. Limestone recommendations are made based on the pH goal and the amount of exchangeable acidity measured by the Mehlich Buffer soil test. The pH goal varies with the crop. The pH goal is given on the crop sheet for each crop in this handbook. If the soil pH is already at or above the pH goal, no limestone is recommended.
