Granular Aerial Grade Lime
Pacific Fertiliser releases a new Granular aerial grade lime product.
To compliment the existing 2-4mm and 2-6mm granular lime and fine, super fine and ultra fine ag lime products, the larger 4-12mm granules offer the following:
- lower cost compared to 2-4mm and 2-6mm ag lime granules
- larger granules assist with product flow in aircraft hoppers and small conical spreaders
- granular lime uses super fine grade natural ag lime to make the larger granules so once wet the solubility is still good
- lower dust compared to powdered product
- ability to blend it with other granulated products and liquid biology stimulants

Brisbane Spreading
Pacific Fertiliser can offer agricultural spreading options in the Brisbane, Gold Coast, Lockyer, Darling Downs and Burnett regions.
We have sophisticated gear with GPS guidance, variable rate controllers and banding options for hort/row crops.
Spreader Accuracy:
Contract Spreader’s Agrispread AS120T and tractors fitted with the Trimble system provide strong data feedback during operation. It allows agronomists and farmers to send variable rate application maps to the machine.Variable rate lime and gypsum spreading can save farmer input costs and increase productivity for their land through applying the correct amount of product where it is required.
The system offers real-time data reporting providing traceability of where the spreader is and check its application rates and other diagnostics such as total weight spread etc.
It gives the grower absolute confidence in what the spreading contractor is doing and when it is doing it and gives us complete oversight of the job.
With a large 16m3 hopper and 36m spread width on urea, the AS120T spread can cover a lot of country in a day.

Treatment of Acid Sulphate Soils
Acid sulphate soil (ASS) is the common name given to soils and sediments containing iron sulfides, the most common being pyrite. When exposed to air due to drainage or disturbance, these soils produce sulphuric acid from reacting with oxygen, often releasing toxic quantities of heavy metals to the wider environment.
Excavation of potential acid sulphate soils (PASS) can lead to the creation of actual acid sulphate soils (AASS). To reduce the possibility of potential acid sulphate soils becoming actual acid sulphate soils, there are four main management techniques used to minimise this possibility and its effects:
– Minimising disturbance
– Neutralisation
– Reclaiming land
– Water coverIn many cases minimising disturbance is not possible especially in relation to construction projects. Reclaiming land and water cover are based on removing the possibility of oxygen coming into contact with the sulphate within the soil, but in many circumstances is not possible. Therefore neutralisation is the only management technique available in many situations where acid sulphate soil is present.
The way in which acid sulphate soil is neutralised is relatively simple in that a highly basic material, such as lime, is mixed with the acid sulphate soil. The amount of lime required to be mixed with the acid sulphate soil is determined by analysing a sample of soil to calculate actual acidity and relating the amount of lime required to be added to effectively neutralise the soil.
In many cases of acid sulphate soil treatment, agricultural lime (Ag lime) is used to neutralise the soil. However, there are other reagents available, which are effective such as hydrated lime, mixtures of hydrated lime and Ag lime, and also lime slurries, which can be added as a liquid.
Pacific Fertiliser can supply and deliver bulk or bagged lime products and other products such as hydrated lime to address your acid sulphate soil issues in NSW, QLD and VIC. We also have equipment and staff to spread, incorporate and mix materials into the treatment areas.
We can work in accordance with your ASS Management Plan (generally provided to you by soil analysis contractor such as SESL etc) and ensure that the correct addition rates of lime (or other product) with homogenous mixing into the soil at correct depths, to provide the best result on your project.

New Central West Lime Product Released
Pacific Fertiliser releases a new Ag lime product for the Central & South West Regions in NSW.
The high analysis lime product specifically made for agricultural use. The sub 1mm sizing allows for better handling, increased spreading accuracy and minimal dust loss during application, without effecting solubility.
The general specifications of Pacific Fertiliser’s Ag Lime:
– Calcium Carbonate – CaCO3 – 96+%
– Total Calcium – Ca – 38+%
– Neutralising Value – NV – 98%The product is supplied & delivered in bulk tippers and we can offer the customer a spread price. For smaller customers we can offer bulkbags of powder or prilled lime.
Aglime is used in agriculture as a soil conditioner due to its superior neutralising value and a rich source of calcium. It is typically used to reduce soil acidity and improve plant growth by helping to increase the availability of essential plant nutrients in the ground.
