. Data on lime loss and soil acidification obtained from a range of ADAS experiments are reviewed. The trials, which include drainage and lysimeter studies and long‐term liming, manuring and soil management experiments, indicate a wide range of annual lime losses, with maximum rates in excess of 1000 kg ha −1 CaCO 3 .
