Lime Should Precede Seeding Of Legumes
Agricultural guidance from Western North Carolina farm agents led by E C Blair advises applying ground limestone three months to one year before seeding legumes. Recommendations cover mixing with topsoil after plowing, light harrowing for pastures, and lime rates: alfalfa 3-4 tons per acre, red clover 2-3, pastures 1.5-2.5, general crops 1-2. The presence of broom sedge and other weeds signals lime need. lime plus phosphate can restore fertility and promote bluegrass and Dutch clover growth.
