Pelletized lime is finely crushed (pulverized) lime, held together with a binder. Ag lime is just crushed up limestone (think crush and run in gravel) and can have more variation in what you get in terms of particle size. Some are very fine, some are bigger and take longer to dissolve. Pelletized lime is less dusty, easier to handle in terms of monitoring spread rate, and works faster because ...

All this started when I talked with @elfiii yesterday and he said YOU NEED LIME. I texted with him today and said we may be the only people to ever over lime a food plot. His reply was that will never happen. The man and I were spreading lime on food plots today preparing to plant clover. I...
Has anyone used the fertilizer spreader 3 point hitch to spread bulk lime. If so how did it work. Lime about 50 a ton verses the pellet at 6.99 a bag abouts for 40 lb.
Ag lime & bagged pulverized lime has more variability in the particle size. Bigger particles have to be broken down before they react with the soil. Pelletized lime also has binders to form the pellets that will constitute about 9-10% of its volume & mass, so you buy a little bit of inert stuff for the convenience of having pellets.
