[QUOTE="EIEIO, post: 200547, member: 1947"] Never limed my place in NW Arkansas nor did any of my neighbors as it was not needed. Chicken litter or commercial fertilizer every other year though especially on the hay fields. This place on the other hand had been let go for several years. Pastures rented out, cattle grazed wherever they wanted as all the gates were left open. Had the soil tested and was running a PHs in the 4's in several places. Can't grow much with that. In the just over 2 years I've been here I now have it crossfenced into 8 seperate pastures all with water. I just had a water line put in and within another month I'll have it divided into 12 or 13 pastures soon as someone makes up my mind. This is on a 160 acre place so I'm hoping for a good rotational/MIG system to benefit me and this farm and reduce what I have to put back into it. Found out today our local quary got rid of their crushing machine and don't plan on getting another which means our lime will now all have to be trucked in from at least 90 miles away. Hate to see what that is going to mean to our prices in this area. J [/QUOTE]
