Sažetak
The residual effect of liming on soil pH and plant available phosphorus and on maize grain yield was studied in the 2011 growing season. Field trial was conducted in 2006 in the east Croatia on the very acid luvisol with low phosphorus availability. Liming material containing 73 % CaO and 2-3% MgO was applied at following rates: 0, 5, 10, 20 and 40 t ha- 1. Liming gradually raised soil pH from initial very acid to even alkaline reaction on the highest rate. Also, available phosphorus content was considerably improved by liming. Significant liming impact on maize grain yield was ascertained, and it was higher on all liming treatments except on the 40 t ha-1, due to overliming. The highest yield (11.9 t ha-1) was achieved on the treatment with 10 t ha-1, but between application of 5, 10 and 20 t ha-1 of lime there were no significant differences. So, liming with moderate lime rate proved to be effective five years after application.
