General Information about this Site

General Site Information

This site contains information about use of CCPs in agriculture and horticulture that was performed at the University of Georgia over the last 15 years. It is NOT a review of all literature pertaining to CCP use, but focuses on our experiences working on acid soils of the Southeastern US.

Given that CCP use is a new and relatively experimental management technique, the authors of this page do not advocate, recommend or warranty the use of CCPs in any application without detailed, specific analysis of the particular situation, in consultation with a professional familiar with agronomic and environmental aspects of CCPs.
