Thats what I was thinking, around 10% give or take, our lime varies between 42 and 46%, so 10t per acre would be 1 ton NV or approx 2 ton lime equivalent?
That’s helpful, the N is .52 as opposed to 5.2, but that’s just a decimal point move.
The product itself here is actually known as Lime Cake, I said Sewage Sludge so folk would understand.
Ours is Lime treated and heated, so there’s a reasonable liming value attached, it’s just not that easy to...
I am trying to do the sums on Lime Cake (sewage sludge) at the minute and struggling!
They’re saying :
N @ 52 kg/t
P @ 2.78 kg/t
K @ 0.35kg/t
At say 10 tons to the acre how many units are being applied!
The lime value is a bit sketchy, saying approx 40.47% DS which I’m assuming is Dry solids...
Sterilisation I expect, no burning, no peat cutting, no stock or stock limits, no supplementary feeding etc and brace yourselves for another influx of camper vans, nappy bags in hedges, empty bottles chucked in fields for the chopper to devour?
We have just had this slapped on us, looks like the plough is the least of our worries.
Biggest land grab since the clearances by the looks, and all legal would you believe !
