Just got off of the phone with the Co op it would cost over a grand for 6 tons!! . I'm not looking to spend that much now so he told me I could put down 2 tons this year 2 tons next and so on to raise the pH level.
That's how I'm doing it, slow and steady with 'horse friendly' lime. I'll add fertiliser this year to the paddocks.
This is in addition to chain-harrowing the horse droppings and then mulching the broken up balls with the lawn tractor after I've shifted paddocks. This method cuts down on parasites.
