Say hello to Brenda Scott, Account Executive at K Lime.

Brenda works closely with farmers and customers across the agricultural industry, helping them understand the importance of soil health and how the right lime products can support farm productivity. 🚜

A big part of her role is sharing practical advice around soil health and bedding lime, helping customers make informed decisions that can deliver long-term benefits for both their land and livestock.

For Brenda, though, it’s the people that make the role so rewarding. 🤝

She particularly enjoys getting out to agricultural events, meeting farmers face-to-face and learning more about the challenges they’re experiencing within their businesses.

Those conversations give Brenda the opportunity to listen, share knowledge and make sure the support and solutions we provide continue to reflect the real needs of modern agriculture. 🌾

It’s that combination of building relationships, sharing knowledge and staying connected to the farming community that Brenda brings to K Lime every day.

Because behind every great solution… is a great person helping make it happen.

Earthworms thrive in near-neutral soils, but acidic soils can reduce their density and diversity. 🪱

Manage soil pH to optimize earthworm activity and nutrient availability.

What is Soil pH and why does it matter?

Soil pH is a measure of the soil’s acidity or alkalinity, it reflects the balance of hydrogen ions in the soil and is measured on a scale from 0–14. This balance is crucial because it influences nutrient availability, soil biology and overall plant growth. Most crops perform best in soils with a pH between 6 and 7.

We dig deeper into what’s driving soil performance in our new guest blog by Hutchinson’s Healthy Soils: https://www.kilwaughterlime.com/news/are-you-maximising-your-soil-potential

Active pH & Buffer pH, what’s the difference?

Active pH (or water pH) shows the soil’s current condition and can fluctuate with weather or management practices. Buffer pH, on the other hand, reflects the soil’s ability to resist change – its underlying or “reserve” acidity. Together, they give a fuller picture of soil health.

Differences between the two can highlight imbalances, helping guide more targeted and effective soil management decisions.
