Nutrients
A unique advantage of LimeX70, and an important one regarding overall farm costs, is the value of the nutrients integral in the product. The information below shows the minimum levels for three important nutrients and their value to your enterprise using the Fertiliser Manual (RB209 8th Edition 2010) as a guide.
Cereals, Sugar Beet, Oil Seed, Grassland at an application rate of 5 tonne/ hectare (2t/ acre) of LimeX70 [ 7t/ hectare (3t/ acre) for LimeX45 ] the combined value of these integral nutrients is around £80 per hectare (inclusive of the savings in applying individual nutrients).
Clubroot at an application rate of 10 tonne/ hectare (4t/acre) of LimeX70 [ 14t/ hectare (6t/ acre) for LimeX45 ] the combined value of these integral nutrients is now around £145 per hectare (inclusive of the savings in applying individual nutrients).

Technical Specification - Efficacy of LimeX
A major reason for the outstanding performance of LimeX is its very fine particle size – it displays a considerable performance advantage with the 150µm sieve. This fine level of particle size results in the twin advantages of rapid action and longevity of effect.
The reactivity of Limex70 is proven to be 106 virus 82 as the mean of nine other lime products.
