Managing your soil acidity can have a huge impact on your pasture or crop performance, so spend a few minutes with the NSW Department of Primary Industries’ Helen Burns to find out more about monitoring and managing acid soils.

Helen’s take home messages are to start monitoring and measure your soils so you can understand your soil profile and make better decisions about whether to lime.

Helen advocates measuring at 5cm intervals, particularly at the beginning so you see how severe the acidity might be and how far down the profile acidity is an issue.

This interview was recorded at the 2023 Grasslands Society of NSW Autumn Pasture Update in Cudal.
