    G Lime

    All has its place; G lime for emergency jobs (spring panic, down the tramlines etc) Calcium or Magnesium lime applications done regularly ever 3 - 5 years depending on soil tests. Using a decent contractor or your own spreader with all the proper equipment GPS, VRA, big tyres, etc

    New tyres

    Tried to get some Roadbibs, but still on farm trails and aren't available yet. So do we pay big bucks for Mich's or less money for Mitas or BKT's then replace sooner with Roadbibs when available as I hear very good reports about them

    New tyres

    Trying to get a larger footprint and better traction, if we reduce the pressure too much with 60 profiles there is very little 'cushion' left in the sidewall, given the load transfer from the muck spreader

    Lime :- 4mm or fine

    Certainly hardness of the parent rock makes all the difference, if soft chalk 4mm down to dust will be fine. But if hard rock a finer ground product would be more suitable

    Spreading FYM on growing crops

    Its a great idea to spread into a growing crop, best use of your nutrients but should be applied with a spinner deck for more accurate results
