Soil, Fertilizer & WateringWhat does effective calcium carbonate equivalent tell me about lime offered for mango soil?
Effective calcium carbonate equivalent combines neutralizing ability with the effectiveness of the material's particle sizes. Equal bag weights can therefore provide different effective liming amounts. Match the laboratory's recommendation basis to the supplier's analysis before comparing costs or quantities. A high effective value is not a reason to lime mango soil that has no demonstrated need for a pH correction.
