Correct Soil Acidity & Unlock Better Growth
Healthy soil starts with balanced pH. Agricultural Lime (Calcium Carbonate – CaCO₃) is a simple, highly effective soil conditioner designed to neutralise acidic soils and restore optimal growing conditions for lawns, gardens, and crops. By lifting soil pH, agricultural lime helps unlock nutrients that would otherwise be locked away, improving plant performance from the ground up.
- Raises soil pH by reducing acidity
- Improves availability of key nutrients (N, P, K)
- Supports stronger root development and plant growth
- Enhances soil structure and aeration
- Boosts beneficial microbial activity in soil
- Reduces toxicity from elements like aluminium and manganese
- Improves fertiliser efficiency and uptake
- Suitable for lawns, gardens, and broadacre farming
- Overall, agricultural lime is an essential tool in agriculture, helping to correct soil pH and create optimal growing conditions for a variety of crops.
Lime granules are considered a soil Soil pH correction + calcium conditioning mineral, it does not feed plants directly, instead it:
- Raises soil pH (reduces acidity)
- Improves availability of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium in acidic soils
- Reduces acid toxicity (aluminium and manganese issues)
- Improves soil microbial activity and nutrient cycling
- Enhances soil structure over time (especially in clay and compacted soils)
- Provides a slow, long-term calcium source
Key Nutrients
- Calcium (Ca) (as calcium carbonate, CaCO₃)
- Carbonate (CO₃): balance component of limestone structure
Functional Composition
- Agricultural lime (calcium carbonate rock)
- 1–2mm slow-release granular prill
- Natural crushed limestone base
- Non-soluble mineral that reacts gradually with soil moisture and acidity
Derived from: Natural crushed limestone (calcium carbonate rock)
Where to use Lime Granules:
Ideal for lawns struggling with acidic soil conditions or poor nutrient uptake. Benefits:
- Encourages thicker, greener turf
- Improves fertiliser performance
- Supports long-term lawn health
Perfect for vegetable beds, ornamentals, and general garden soil improvement. Benefits:
- Creates better growing conditions for plants
- Supports healthier root systems
- Improves overall soil fertility
Widely used in agriculture to optimise soil conditions for high-yield crop production and pasture growth. Benefits:
- Improves crop performance (e.g. cereals, legumes, forage crops)
- Enhances pasture quality for livestock feed
- Supports long-term soil productivity
Use Lime Granules when soil tests show low pH (acidic soil), before planting or establishing lawns and crops, and/or as part of seasonal soil improvement programs. Typically applied in autumn or early spring for best results.
Agricultural lime is primarily made of calcium carbonate (CaCO₃), which reacts with acidic soils to neutralise hydrogen ions and raise pH levels.
- Acidic soils reduce nutrient availability and restrict plant growth
- Lime neutralises acidity, creating a more balanced soil environment
- Improves availability of essential nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium
- Enhances microbial activity, supporting natural nutrient cycling
- Reduces solubility of toxic elements like aluminium and manganese in acidic soils
- Calcium supports strong cell walls and root structure development
By correcting soil pH, agricultural lime helps restore the natural biological and chemical balance of soil.
Technical Highlights
- Active ingredient: Calcium Carbonate (CaCO₃)
- Soil conditioner for pH correction
- Improves nutrient availability and fertiliser efficiency
- Enhances microbial soil life
- Suitable for sandy, loam, and clay soils
- Long-term soil improvement product
Agricultural lime restores balance at the foundation level, creating the right conditions for stronger roots, better nutrient uptake, and healthier, more productive growth across lawns, gardens, and farms.
Safety Guidelines
Apply evenly across the soil surface and water in well after application. Avoid over-application, as excessive pH changes can reduce nutrient availability. Store in a cool, dry place and keep sealed when not in use.
