Liming to control erosion good practice described
Liming soil reduces erosion as a key practice. Dr Brown of Iowa State College notes many soils are acid and liming enables deep rooted legumes like sweet clover and alfalfa to grow, improving organic matter and preventing soil wash while crops cover the land. Legume crops boost soil health and long term profitability.
