Our products have varying bulk densities. The figures below offer a density guide only, as sizing, loose bulk and bagged products greatly affect the bulk density of each product.
Before spreading it is best to check in field and on the phone before spreader calibration.
• Mined Gypsum – 1.3 to 1.5 tonne per m3
• Fine Gypsum – 1.0 to 1.1 tonne per m3
• Recycled Gypsum – 0.7 to 0.8 tonne per m3
• Ag Lime – 1.5 to 1.8 tonne per m3
• Fine Ag Lime – 1.0 to 1.1 tonne per m3
• Hydrated Lime Loose – 0.5t/m3, to Bagged at 0.85 tonne per m3
• Quick Lime – 1.0 to 1.1 tonne per m3
• Dolomite – 1.5 to 1.8 tonne per m3
• Fine Dolomite – 1.0 to 1.2 tonne per m3
• Bentonite – 1.2 to 1.6 tonne per m3
• Phosphate Rock – 1.6 to 2.0 tonne per m3
• Urea Granular – 0.7 to 0.8 tonne per m3
• MAP & DAP – 0.95 to 1.1 tonne per m3
• Granular Gypsum – 1.0 to 1.2 tonne per m3
• Granular Lime – 1.0 to 1.2 tonne per m3
• Granular Dolomite – 1.0 to 1.2 tonne per m3
Note: When spreading it always best to check the product bulk density by dividing the first load weight via the area covered (GPS) with that 1st load, to calculate the actual kg/ha in the field.
