Calcium carbonate is a non-aggressive product, free from harmful substances, with nutritive and absorbent properties suitable for different applications. These include use in winemaking as a wine deacidifier and in agriculture as a fertiliser.
Calcium carbonate for wine deacidification
Calcium carbonate can be used when wine has particularly high acidity.
As a theoretical reference, to reduce titratable acidity by approximately 1 g/L, expressed as tartaric acid, approximately 0.67 g/L of calcium carbonate is required, equivalent to 67 g/hL.
Before treating the entire batch, preliminary tests on small quantities are recommended. Acidity and pH should be checked to determine the actual dosage required.
Use of calcium carbonate in vineyards
Calcium carbonate can be used on vines in vineyards to help support the lignification process and improve resistance during winter periods.
Other uses of calcium carbonate in agriculture
In agriculture, calcium carbonate is mainly used to supply calcium and help correct acidic soils. Use and quantities should be assessed according to soil characteristics and the instructions provided for the product.
It can be used in agricultural soils and in soils for ornamental plants. In soils where calcium is deficient, plant and leaf growth may be affected.
pH correction in acidic soils
- Sandy soil: 18–36 quintals per hectare;
- Silty soil: 36–54 quintals per hectare;
- Clayey soil: 54–90 quintals per hectare.
