Summary

From fertilizer applications to crop rotations, many of the decisions made each season can influence your soil pH over time. In this episode, Dr. Miles Dyck from the University of Alberta joins Dr. Alan Blaylock to discuss what soil pH is, why it matters and what growers should know about managing acidic and alkaline soils. Learn how fertilizer management, crop rotations and nutrient removal influence soil pH, the challenges associated with high and low soil pH levels and the options available for managing soil pH over time. From soil testing and liming to the role of elemental sulfur and economics of pH correction, discover how growers can identify pH issues, evaluate their options and make stronger decisions for the long-term.
