A laboratory analysis showed the following results:
CEC = 20 meq/100g soil solution Ca = 6 meq/1
CaCO3 = 0.2% soil solution Mg = 2 meq/1
pH = 8.6 soil solution Na = 36 meq/1
EC = 5.0 mmhos/cm
a. Calculate SAR, ESR, and ESP
b. Calculate the Gypsum (lbs/afs) required to reduce ESP to 5%.
c. Does the soil contain enough lime to reduce ESP to 5% if S were used instead of gypsum? How much S (lbs/afs) is required to reduce ESP?
