And when the land begins to thaw, the depth and rate of penetration is such that the lime is better assimilated or mixed with the soil. With spring plowing, the lime will have had a more complete effect on correcting soils acid condition.” He made real good sense to me. I know enough about farming to lime my land for greater yields. The people at Burkholder know their farming too. We get along fine together. They won’t boast about their products unless you ask ’em. I’ll bet we’d all learn more if we did ask!
