Lime is a natural mineral being dug up and therefore requires no certification or derogation
I don't do any spraying, I was just there to spread the lime
I would have thought all lime was organic as its just dug out the ground and crushed up perhaps not ? anyone
is there such a thing as organic concreate and organic cubicle mats or organic slat mats ? anyone
there you go use that for your organic cattle beds or sand I take its that's the same
Unfortunately I am with @Sid here and know the market is slowly growing but we are way behind on the amount of organic milk consumed on the continent, so the potential is there to grow the market as long as it’s grown without negative marketing campaigns of conventional milk any consumer trading up is good for us all.
Where I am not with @Sid is where he is calling other members trolls as there is no one worse than him for trolling, especially a certain subject which if you look back he will be the biggest contributor on another thread on here with his stupid accusations.

And how would a farmer dispose of say 1000 ton of lime when soils are already 6.5 ph ? And with manure and nutritional contents that's needed to grow crops? Sand would be the same.
no just got in from fetching a trailer load of wood before it rained from a hedging job we done, some of the logs were bloody heavy to, why do you ask ?
some form of separator ?
are all organic farms on land that has a high PH then ?
the ones that are not could use it leaving the organic straw for the rest
Quarry sand would not be high in PH only sea sand is, as normal farms have the same problem
there is the answer thenQuarry sand would not be high in PH only sea sand is, as normal farms have the same problem
