- Control
- 9-23-30 (300 lb)
- 9-23--30 (300 lb), Pellet Lime (200 lb) Fall Applied
- 9-23-30 (300 lb), Pellet Lime (200 lb) Spring Appl.
All plots were top-dressed with 200 pounds of Urea before dormancy break. All 9-23-30 applications were Fall-applied pre-plant. Plots were randomized with 4 replications.
RESULTS & DISCUSSION
Winter wheat response to the application of Pellet Lime is the focus of this study. Both the 1997 and 1998 trials clearly indicate the addition of Pellet Lime creates a positive response in wheat. More specifically, results of this years trial indicate a significant response to wheat yields (18+ bushel) from applying Pellet Lime with P/K fertilizer when Spring applied.

Alfalfa...
Pellet Lime increased harvested tonnage in all test years; crude protein content is significantly higher in the treated 2003 trials. Tests show improved seeding establishment and early plant health with Pellet Lime.
Soybeans...
Nine out of ten years soybeans treated with Pellet Lime significantly out yielded non-treated soybeans and netted big profits.
Wheat...
Pellet Lime applications with wheat successfully increased wheat quality and yield.
Corn...
Test results show a positive response to broadcast Pellet Lime.
Grass/Legume...
A 200 lb/ A Pellet Lime application out-yielded the control by over 2 ton/acre in our first year's testing. |
