Q8. Does reefinating limestone change how the soil locks up phosphorus?
Reefinating limestone can increase phosphorus tie-up by exposing more carbonate surfaces, but the overall agronomic benefits usually outweigh this issue, though higher phosphorus rates may be necessary.

Q7. Can I lower soil pH in calcareous soils? If I did, would it fix some of the issues?
Lowering soil pH in calcareous soils is impractical; instead, adjust fertiliser strategies by increasing phosphorus and trace element rates, choosing suitable tests, and managing toxicity risks from salinity and ammonia.
View moreQ4. Do some phosphorus fertilisers work better than others in calcareous soils?
Liquid phosphorus fertilisers are generally more effective than granular ones in calcareous soils due to reduced phosphorus fixation and improved availability.
View moreQ5. Does liquid nitrogen fertiliser work better in calcareous soil?
Liquid nitrogen fertiliser isn’t necessarily better on calcareous soils since nitrogen efficiency isn’t significantly impacted by fertiliser type, though upfront nitrogen application or application before rain is ideal.
