🪨 Lime Application Rate Calculator

Calculate agricultural lime needed to raise soil pH based on soil type.

Current Soil pHCurrent soil pH from test

Target pHDesired pH for your crop

Soil TypeSoil texture affects lime requirement

Lime Neutralising Value (%)Product quality (80-100%)

📐 How It Works

Lime Rate = (Target pH - Current pH) × 1.5 × Soil Factor × (100 ÷ NV)

Soil Factors: Sandy = 0.7 | Loam = 1.0 | Clay = 1.3
