I learned something about lime yesterday from a faithful reader of my site who happens to be a farmer. Our local ag service runs around $88 a ton. I've seen other discussions in the forums about it and I think the cheapest I seen was around $40 a ton. Well turns out you can buy the same lime straight from the quarry, so I called my local quarry and I can get it for $3 a ton. THAT'S RIGHT $3 A TON !!!! Now that really helps a joe smoe like me at getting into food plots.[/align]

It's $6.75 a ton here in Kansas, 62% ECC.

I don't see how they could quarry it, grind it, handle it, etc for $3 a yard. Get a tag-a-long trailer and get some.

Through a Co-Op in NY I paid $38 ton spread. I called around, and other places wanted $50 plus ton, spread. If you figure in your time, and gas for doing it yourself I don't think $38 ton is bad.
