How
Life-styler
works
TLC for your lifestyle block
Life-styler Farm Fertilisers are a range of general-purpose lime-based fertilisers ideal for combining your lime and fertiliser applications. When livestock and crops are removed, major nutrients get depleted. Life-styler combines these nutrients with fine lime - vital to counter soil acidity and maintain healthy soils and pastures.
Use Life-styler fine lime pellets to take care of:
- Soil structure improving aeration, water filtration, and allowing roots to penetrate deeper into the soil.
- Soil biology by providing a food source for beneficial soil life. Active soil microbes reuse and recycle plant and animal waste, and fewer chemicals are necessary.
- Soil chemistry with a mix of essential nutrients for soil and plant health, including the use of seaweed and humates, which provide a wide range of essential trace elements
We start with fine lime because the finer the lime, the more immediate the reaction in the soil. We crush the lime to an average of 70 microns, then pressed it into a pellet. The pellets are easy to use, spread evenly, minimise drift and dust, and break down readily for an immediate reaction in the soil.
Trial work shows a change in pH to an average of 0.2 per 250kg/Ha. Thanks to its accurate and concentrated form, you’ll use a lot less than traditional Ag Lime. You’ll see results within 6 to 12 weeks, depending on soil type rainfall and current farming practices. For trials data click here.
At Optimise we only use high-quality ingredients, micronising them to enhance their release and availability. Some products can be AsureQuality certified if that's a requirement. Pellets are proudly manufactured in New Zealand.
