- OzcalMagTM can be applied by growers with standard fertiliser application equipment as a straight or blended with fertiliser.
- The ultra-fine particle size of OzcalMag results in high reactivity of the pure calcium and magnesium carbonate. Therefore, greatly reduced rates are applied compared to Dolomite.
- This product provides efficient treatment for soil pH problems and where calcium / magnesium requirements exist.
- Quick release upon contact with water for fast results.
The importance of neutralising value and particle size
Neutralising Value (NV) is an indicator of a Lime’s effectiveness in the soil at neutralising acid. Aglimes have a NV of 50% to 90%. OzcalMag has a NV of 99% indicating high purity.
The smaller the particle size the more reactive the Lime is in the soil and the quicker acidity is neutralised.
