Agriculture grade dolomite used for soil neutralization/conditioner to correct acidity. It also finds use as filler in fertilizers. The main ingredient is calciumcarbonate, it helps to increase the pH of acidic soils and it provides a good source of calcium for plant. It improves the water penetration for acidic soil. It also contains MgCO3 for triggering fast growth of plants.
USES :
Agricultural grade Dolomite powder used primarily to control acidity(pH) in soils by making them more basic(alkaline).
Fertilizers and herbicides can then work efficiently, and plants can more readily absorb the nutrients that help them grow.
CaCO3 reacts strongly to acid in the soils, such as sulfuric acid. This reaction forms water, carbon dioxide, and calcium or magnesium salts, thus creating a soil that is less acidic and more productive.
The composition of these carbonates includes a low percentage(approximately 3%) of silica, aluminum and iron compounds, as well as trace elements such as strontium, sulfur, and zinc, which contribute to vigorous plant growth.
Higher mesh (smaller particles) has greater surface area to contact and react with soil particles than larger particles in the same amount (mass) of dolomite powder. To achieve a fine particle size, crushed agricultural grade dolomite is sieved through a series of screens until the required fineness is reached.
Soil neutralization :
Neutralization of soil is necessary in order to promote plant growth. The ability of plants to take nutrients as calcium, magnesium and other minerals from the soil into their roots is affected by the pH content of the surrounding soil particles.
In the liming process, agricultural grade dolomite-calcium carbonate (CaCO3) that may also contain magnesium carbonate (MgCO3) neutralizes acid in the soil and provides nutrients to promote plant growth.
