Liming Bluegrass Returns Yields Boost Pasture Growth
County Agent Max M. Smith advises lime pastures to maintain soil pH 6.5 to 6.7 and apply at least 300 lb of 0-20-20 per acre annually. If lime exceeds two tons per acre, split applications over two years. Soy nitrogen adds 80 to 100 lb per acre early in spring, with earlier grazing as growth resumes.
