For example, the acidifying effects of rainfall and the use of fertilisers. As soil acidity increases, plant health can suffer as nutrients become less available. To counter this effect, Trucal is able to naturally neutralise soil acidity by reducing the amount of acidifying free hydrogen ions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTrucal has a high neutralising value of 55.6% and a fine granulation meaning that it will get working to neutralise soil acidity faster than more coarsely ground liming products.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eProduct summary table\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eGranule size (mm)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCutting height\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBag size (kg)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eApplication rate (g\/m\u003c\/span\u003e\u003csup\u003e2\u003c\/sup\u003e\u003cspan\u003e)\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eBag coverage (m²)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.6 - 1.2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAll turf including fine turf\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e50-1000\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cspan\u003e25-500\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eApplication Recommendations\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhere to use:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManaged amenity turf:\u003ci\u003eAreas of frequently mown intensively managed turf, including:\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ci\u003eFields being used for turf production\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ci\u003eAll types of sports turf\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ci\u003eOrnamental turf\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAmenity vegetation:\u003ci\u003e Any areas of semi natural or ornamental vegetation, including trees\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrnamental garden plants:\u003ci\u003e Any plants that are not intend for consumption, including plants grown in private gardens\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEdible crops:\u003ci\u003e Any plants that are intended for consumption\u003c\/i\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhen to use:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTrucal should ideally be incorporated into the soil up to six months prior to seeding to give time for the neutralisation process to occur.
