It might be that the powder in the pelletized lime reacts faster than ordinary finely ground lime once the adhesive in the pellet breaks down in the soil. If so there might be a quicker crop response if there was going to be a crop response. For sure quicker than lime ground as coarse as sand. In any case pelletized lime tends to cost a lot more than ordinary ag lime.

consider the fines available in 1 to 3 ton, 2,000 to 6,000 Lbs of fine ground Ag Lime compared to 200 lbs of Pellets ???
No, Not an advantage |
200 lbs of pelletized lime = >½-1 T of Ag lime. revisited
