Limestone Institute, these problems. Alfalfa
Many seedmgs have is very sensitive to soil,
started well, but faded acidity. Alfalfa does
out in a year or two or 1 best at pHs of 6.5 or
have been invaded by higher. Successful
weeds. Many alfalfa seedings and good
fields never produce as production begin with a
they should.
A lack of a sound
liming program could
be the cause of all of
well-limed soil.
A sound liming
program for alfalfa
begins six months to a
year before the seeding.
It begins with a soil test
to determine both
limestone and fertilizer
needs. Of these,
limestone is the most
important.
It takes time for
limestone to neutralize
the acids in soils.
Limestone should be
applied at least six
months before seeding
alfalfa.
Limestone must be in
contact with the acid
soil. Therefore, it should
be thoroughly worked
into the soil to a six to
nine inch depth. This is
very important if more
than one ton per acre is
needed.
No-till seedings of
alfalfa should not be
made on acid soil, says
N.L.I. If necessary,
delay such seedings a
year until you get the
soil in condition.
Apply the amount of
limestone needed.
Under-liming generally
leads to poor alfalfa
production.
