If you find out that the acidity levels in the area are high, this can reduce the yield of a number of crops.
Therefore, it is worth paying attention to effective methods for solving this problem.
It is worth paying attention to chalk and dolomite flour, says Anastasia Kovrizhnykh, an expert of the online publication BelNovosti, landscape designer and agronomist.
How to reduce acidity levels using these two methods
Dolomite flour
Many people are familiar with this solution to the problem. Dolomite flour is one of the most delicate means.
It is capable of not only leveling out acidity levels, but also significantly improving the chemical composition and structure of the soil.
From 300 to 500 grams of dolomite flour is needed per square meter.
Chalk
This product is quite effective, but it is important to grind it well before applying. It is also important to consider that chalk does not tolerate moisture well.
As a rule, 1-2 cups of chalk should be used per square meter.
