D – Secondary Nutrients Tests – 3 Test
1. Soil Lime Requirement: ₹99/-
oil lime requirement refers to the amount of limestone needed to neutralize soil acidity and raise the pH to a level suitable for crop growth.
Based on the information you provided in the “Services Krushi Savya Website” document, Krushi Savya Agri Clinic performs detailed soil testing, including analysis of pH and other chemical parameters. While the document does not explicitly use the term “lime requirement,” a proper assessment of pH is the first and most critical step in determining if liming is necessary. The amount of lime required is directly calculated from the soil’s current pH and its “buffering capacity.”
You can use the pH test report from Krushi Savya to determine the acidity of your soil. If the pH is low (acidic), you can then calculate or consult with Krushi Savya on the appropriate amount of lime to apply to bring the pH into the optimal range for your specific crop.
2. Soil Gypsum Requirement: ₹99/-
Soil Gypsum Requirement is the amount of gypsum (calcium sulfate) needed to reclaim sodic (alkaline) soils. Unlike liming, which is used for acidic soils, gypsum is applied to counteract the high concentration of sodium ions in sodic soils.
How Gypsum Helps:
How it’s Determined: The gypsum requirement is determined by a detailed soil analysis that measures the soil’s Exchangeable Sodium Percentage (ESP) or Sodium Adsorption Ratio (SAR) and its Cation Exchange Capacity (CEC). The soil testing services mentioned in the “Services Krushi Savya Website” document you shared, which include tests for “Na” and “RSC/SAR/Exch. Na,” are the precise scientific analyses required to determine a soil’s gypsum needs
