It’s a great feeling to know that you are the
master of your farmlands . . . that when you
treat your soil right, it will treat you right.
Liming is one of the most important factors
in keeping your soil in the highest productive
range. A good pasture with a pH of 6.5 or
higher, for example, will make 300 to 400 lbs.
of beef per acre and produce up to $lOO gross
income per acre. This means with the help of
lime, profits from pastures can compare favor
ably with feed or grain crops.
