I want to estimate the lime rate for acid sandy soils based on the pH buffering capacity (pHBC) of soils. Moreover, I need to evaluate the impact of different organic amendments on the soil pH buffering capacity of soils using:
* Titration method
* Incubation method
* Buffer methods (standard buffer solutions)
* Pedotransfer functions
Which method is best to provide accurate results of pH buffering capacity and easily used to estimate lime rate? Is there a new method available to estimate pHBC and lime rate that is not mentioned here?
How can I draw a calibration graph to know the pH buffering capacity of soil?
Thank you for your information in advance.
