EFFECT OF TYPE, RATE AND INCORPORATION OF LIME AND OF NITROGEN FERTILIZER AND GYPSUM ON MOVEMENT OF LIME IN SOIL COLUMNS
Keyword(s):
Soil Ph
◽
Soil columns were used to study downward movement of calcite and dolomite applied at two rates on the soil surface or incorporated 0–5 cm deep in combinations with gypsum and surface-applied N fertilizer. The columns were irrigated with 800 mm of deionized water applied over 3 wk. Incorporation of the liming materials greatly accelerated their downward movement in soil. Calcite and dolomite were equally effective in raising soil pH at the lower depths. Neither gypsum nor fertilizer nor doubling the liming rate had much effect on lime movement.
