Neutralising Value
Definition: neutralising value
neutralising value: a measurement of the capability of a lime material to neutralize soil acidity. It is the same as the calcium oxide equivalent. Understanding the neutralizing value of lime materials helps farmers effectively manage soil pH and improve soil fertility. By applying lime with the appropriate neutralizing value, farmers can correct soil acidity, enhance nutrient availability, and promote healthy crop growth. This knowledge supports informed decision-making in soil management, leading to better yields and increased farm profitability.
