KY Lime costs

[herofan]

Does anyone know the going rate for lime per ton in KY, including the cost to have it spread?

Im not in KY but can see KY from the front porch. Here I pay $18.50 a ton spread.

Last I had spread was 20$ a ton that was two years ago.

I paid $25 a ton spread in Western Kentucky this year. Nobody here spreads so you have to wait on the one guy in my area to get free time, I asked if that is a business I should look into, he said very little work in spreading lime, mostly he spreads fertilizer and makes very little on lime, who knows?

In my county the BTO's spread their own lime. I have mine spread of course. $22 a ton.

Do you spread fertilizer? Whats the difference? I'm not even sure I could find someone to spread it for me around here, just always done it ourselves.

The co-ops I deal with have tow behind spreaders and truck mounted spreaders. I get treated quite well at our local warehouse, because I don't mind fixing there tore up stuff. It's a real shame the way some folks treat other folks stuff. And most folks won't even tell the warehouse that the equipment is broke. I look at it as a privilege to be able to spread my own stuff with someone else's equipment.
