Liming pays off in healthier soil,
better crops, stronger and more
productive animals In fact, it has
been estimated that each $1 in
vested in limestone returns from $3
to $lO in bigger and better yields.
Baker’s agricultural limestone pays
off best because it does more. It
sweetens soil to reduce acidity and
raise pH level, and it also adds vital
magnesium Both are important to
make sure that your crops can make
full use of the fertilizers you apply
Take care of your land, and your
land will take care of you. Choose
the brand of Baker’s agricultural
limestone that meets your needs.
