Lime and Its Use of Soils in Indiana
Indiana soils benefit from ground limestone primarily from local limestone formations. Mitchell and Bedford limestones offer high calcium carbonate content. Huron and Harrodsburg provide lower lime. Lime acts as a soil conditioner improving nutrient availability, neutralizing acidity, and loosening or stabilizing soils. Recommendations cover grinding to fine texture, proper application rates, and avoiding impure slag mixes while maintaining humus through manure or crop rotation.
