Definition and Scope: Granulated lime is a type of agricultural product that is used to improve soil quality by raising the pH level. It is made by grinding limestone into a fine powder and then granulating it into small, easy-to-spread pellets. Granulated lime is commonly used in agriculture to neutralize acidic soils, enhance nutrient availability for plants, and promote healthier crop growth. Farmers apply granulated lime to their fields to adjust soil pH levels, which can help increase crop yields and improve overall soil health. The market for granulated lime in agriculture is experiencing steady growth due to several market trends and drivers. One of the key trends driving the market is the increasing awareness among farmers about the importance of soil health and the benefits of using granulated lime. As sustainable farming practices gain traction, more farmers are turning to granulated lime as a natural and effective solution for improving soil quality. Additionally, the growing demand for high-quality crops and the need for increased agricultural productivity are driving farmers to invest in soil amendments like granulated lime to optimize their crop yields. At the same time, government initiatives promoting soil conservation and sustainable agriculture practices are also contributing to the growth of the granulated lime market in agriculture.
