Subject: RE: the high cost of ag lime--it's not the material, it's the transport!

Just finished 1200 tons here in se Kansas a few days ago. My wife hauls it, averaging about a 30-40 mile haul and I spread it with a JD floater. She can haul 100 tons a day and I can spread 3-400 tons per day. $7 per ton at quarry. $10 per ton freight cost then maybe costs another $5-10 to run the wheel loader and spreader. But it’s a satisfying job to do every year, mostly on new ground we buy or rent.
