Agricultural Lime Dolomite Plus

Agricultural Lime Dolomite Plus

Multiply the growth of your crops with dolomite lime.

Correct the acidity of your crops' soil with Dolomite Plus Powder, which provides 30% Calcium and 23% Magnesium. This not only increases the growth potential of the crops but also makes fertilizers up to 50% more effective, allowing for significant savings on fertilizers.

Importance of Magnesium in crops

Magnesium is crucial for the photosynthesis of plants, being responsible for root development and chlorophyll production. Rain can wash away minerals like magnesium and calcium from soils, increasing their acidity and reducing their fertility.

Advantages of dolomitic powder

• Increases soil pH, making it more fertile and improving the assimilation of primary nutrients.
• Reduces toxicity from metals such as aluminum, iron, and manganese.
• Raises magnesium and calcium levels in the soil.
• Improves microbial activity and helps fix nitrogen.

Chemical composition of Dolomite Plus Powder

Dolomite Plus Powder contains 30% calcium and 23% magnesium. Its granulometry is 0-0.1 mm with a PRNT of 100, meaning that practically 100% of the particles are active and effective.

Granulometry of Dolomitic Powder

Unlike Dolomite Lime with a granulometry of 0-1 mm, which has lower absorption power, the dolomite powder of 0-0.1 mm is more effective.

Amount of dolomite powder to apply

The appropriate amount depends on the soil acidity:

• pH 3.5 to 4.2: 3.5 tons per hectare.
• pH 4.3 to 4.8: 3 tons per hectare.
• pH 4.9 to 5.3: 2.5 tons per hectare.

Timing and method of applying dolomite powder

The ideal time is 3 to 4 months before planting, applying it broadcast or mixing it with the soil to a depth of 20 cm, near the roots.

Foliar application of dolomite lime

Foliar application can be beneficial to quickly correct calcium or magnesium deficiencies. However, before applying dolomite via foliar, it is advisable to conduct a soil analysis. The frequency and concentration of the application should be controlled to avoid issues such as phytotoxicity.

Foliar application should be a supplement, not a replacement for soil amendments, and it is essential to maintain an adequate nutritional balance. Consult with an agronomist to tailor the application to the specific needs of your crop.
