17、d Kingdom. CEN/TS 15084:20064 Introduction Regular liming for regulation of the pH value of the soil has a long tradition in agriculture. Liming has a neutralizing effect on the natural acidification of the soil and thus serves the maintenance of soil fertility. The desired effects of liming are mai
18、nly: physical: Increased structure stability of the flocculation and porosity of mineral soils, leading to better drainage, structure stability of the soil and improved aeration of the soil. chemical: Positive influence on solubility of macro- and some micro-nutrients, a reduction in the availabilit
19、y of aluminium and other toxic elements in the soil and avoid aluminium toxicity. biological: general support of active soil organisms. Existing European Standards specify methods for assessing the value of liming materials. It is also necessary to establish the principles to be used when calculatin
20、g the amount of liming material required. Throughout Europe, wide national and regional variations in soil type, climate and types of farming prohibit the general use of detailed and specific recommendations. The principles set out in this standard should be used by experts at a local level to estab
21、lish lime requirement. CEN/TS 15084:20065 1 Scope This Technical Specification gives guidance on the parameters that should be taken into account in order to determine the lime requirement of agricultural soils. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the appl

36、res for lime requirement be accurately verified. NOTE From the farmers point of view, the determination of lime requirement must consider, not only the scientific reasons for correct soil pH, but also the economics of the subsequent liming operation.

37、e an amount of lime 7.2.1 The initial and the target pH value of the soil Use the results of field experiments carried out over many years with the most important crops and under various climatic conditions to establish the optimum soil pH, which will give the highest financial return after taking i
38、nto consideration the cost of the liming operation. The results are recorded in NV per hectare. 7.2.2 The initial and the target cation saturation rate of the adsorption complex in the soil This type of calculation should be verified by field experiments. 7.2.3 Reaction of a soil sample with chemica
39、l reagents The barium acetate buffer method or ammonium acetate method are laboratory analytical methods, which can be used to determine the lime requirement of agricultural soils. NOTE See Bibliography 1, 2 and 3. 7.2.4 The optimum pH range of crops or crop rotation system The position of the limin
40、g operation in the crop rotation programme is important. The special pH requirement of single crops or the average pH requirement of a complete crop rotation shall be considered when determining the NV per hectare to be applied. 7.2.5 Buffering capacity of soils Buffering capacity of soils regarding
41、 pH shall be taken into account when determining the amount of liming material and required to reach the targeted pH. Clay content, organic matter or cation exchange capacity can provide an estimation of it. Lime requirement for basal or increase pH liming requires higher application rates in clay o
42、r organic soils, since the buffer capacity of which is higher in these soils. See also experimental approach in 7.2.3. 8 Determination and calculation The lime requirement, R, is expressed as NV per hectare or kilograms per hectare of CaO-equivalent. The amount of product required, Q, is expressed i
43、n kilograms per hectare according to the following equation: NVRQ100= (1) where R is the requirement, in kilograms per hectare, NV is the Neutralizing Value. Recommendations for lime requirement should be given by trained personnel, and be based upon the guidelines principles and parameters set out
44、in this document. The recommendations will vary according to regional and local circumstances. When determining lime requirement, it is particularly important to know the Neutralizing Value (NV) of the fertilizer to be applied. NV is the principal indicator of the ability of a fertilizer to neutrali
45、ze acidity. CEN/TS 15084:200612 Where very high rates of liming material are recommended, they should be divided. Table 7 shows the recommended maximum annual amount of NV equivalent to be applied depending upon soil type. Table 7 Maximum amounts of NV per year Character of Soil Type Amount of NVper
46、 ha light sandy soils 3 000 medium loamy soils 6 000 heavy clayey soils 9 000 A simplified system of lime requirement may be used when soil analysis is not possible. In that case the schedule given in Table 5 shows the guideline figures: 9 Additional conditions to be considered The application rate
47、of liming material required for arable land generally refers to soils with a 20 cm to 30 cm depth of almost stoneless (or with very few stones) soil, and surface soils and grassland soils up to 10 cm deep. If the soil is considerably more shallow and contains more stones, the required amount of lime
48、 may be reduced by 20 % to 40 %. The spreading of liming material within the crop rotation should coincide with the planting of crops with higher soil pH demands. This applies particularly to preservation liming. On soils with low clay content, the use of carbonate limes should be preferred (see Bib
49、liography 4). The soil pH value naturally fluctuates within certain limits, and is influenced by cultivation, weather and soil condition. The effectiveness of the liming operation, particularly following basal and increase liming, should be monitored by repeated soil analyses at shorter intervals (i. e. annually if required).
