HEALTHIER CROPS. BETTER SOILS.

For centuries, growers have relied on agricultural lime

to neutralize soil pH, maximize the availability of key

nutrients and manage crop productivity. Now, growers

can use POWERLIME™ One-Step pH / Sulfur product

from Beneficial Reuse Management, to adjust soil

pH and provide plant-available sulfate sulfur. It helps

growers to maximize nutrient availability and crop yield.

What is POWERLIME™?POWERLIME is a flue gas desulfurization (FGD) co-product material derived from the scrubbing of flue gas emissions in coal-burning power plants. It is a one-step soil amendment used to manage pH and supply sulfur in a single trip across the field.

POWERLIME consists of a reactive form of calcium and sulfate sulfur. The form of calcium helps to adjust soils to optimum pH levels, making nutrients more available. The sulfate sulfur is a form that is readily available to the crop, unlike other types of sulfur that require time to convert into a usable form.
