University of Nebraska lime recommendations are based on liming material that has a 60 percent effective calcium carbonate equivalent (ECCE). Effective calcium carbonate equivalent is …

Effective Calcium Carbonate Equivalent (ECCE): (Total Fineness Efficiency ÷ 100) x (% CCE ÷ 100) x ([100 - % Moisture] ÷ 100) x 2000 = ECCE Example: (70 ÷ 100) x (92 ÷ 100) x ([100 - 2] …

If the soil pH is less than 6.1, a minimum of 1.0 tons ECCE lime should be applied to alfalfa regardless of the buffer index. Apply higher rates of lime if indicated by the buffer index, using …

Agricultural lime (aglime) is applied to increase pH of acidic soils to values optimum for crop production, and its effectiveness is affected mainly by it calcium carbonate (CaCO3) …

To improve the efficacy of unincorporated lime applications, use lime materials with a highest fineness of grind and ECCE available. Right Timing: Applications of lime should be made as …

2011年1月12日 · The ECCE is based on the purity of the material and the fineness of the material (finely ground lime will react more quickly than coarse-ground lime). Most agricultural lime …

How do I know when I have good lime? The effective calcium carbonate equivalent (ECCE), which lime vendors must provide, is an indicator of how well the lime should work to neutralize …

University of Nebraska lime recommendations are based on liming material that has a 60 percent effective calcium carbonate equivalent (ECCE). Effective calcium carbonate equivalent is …

In order to provide a more favorable pH, the soils must each be limed. The amount of lime required will depend on the size of the large reservoirs and how empty they are of bases.

In Wisconsin, lime quality is listed by neutralizing index NI = Fineness factor x Purity factor Lime with CCE of 90% and fineness of 67 NI = 67 x 90% = 60.3 Lime requirement (LR) in Wisconsin …
