Liming alters chemical soil attributes and favors root development, but its efficiency depends on the incorporation form and the physical and chemical characteristics of the soil.

The replicated treatments consisted of four surface lime rates (0.0; 2.0, 8.5 and 17.0 t ha-1), incorporated by one plowing followed by two diskings. […]
