1 DETERMINATION OF THE LIME REQUIREMENT FOR ACID SOILS IN ONTARIO USING THE SMP BUFFER METHODS The accuracy of the Shoemaker-Mclean-Pratt single buffer method and its double buffer variation was compared for determining the lime requirement of 41 acid mineral soils in Ontario. The single buffer method gave good prediction of the lime requirement when calibrated against Ca(OH)r-titrated soil acidity using a quadratic equation. Key words: Lime requirement, acid soils, SMP buffer [Etablissement des besoins en calcaire des sols acides de l'ontario par les mdthodes tampons SMP.I Titre abrdg6: Besoins en calcaire selon les m6thodes tampons SMP.

Two drops of chloroform were added to inhibit microbial activity, and the suspension was shaken mechanically and intermittently for a total of 8 h over a 72-h period. Lime requirements to attain ph 5.5, 6.0 and 6.5 were read off plots of the final ph of the supernatant solution vs. the amount of Ca(OH), added. Eight of the experimental soils were incubated at field capacity for 30 d with various amounts of Ca(OH)r. Linear regression showed that the lime requirements to attain ph 6.5, obtained by incubation and by titration in 0.01 M CaCl, solutions, were quite similar (P:0.874, b:0.945 and, sr.:0.565). This indicated that the titration method was a suitable choice for a reference method. The SMP-SB (single buffer at ph 7.5) method (Shoemaker et al. 1961) and a variation (single buffer at ph7.3) were tested first. The latter buffer ph had been suggested to improve the lime requirement prediction of south-eastern U.S. soils (Mcl-ean et al. 1978). The ph of the soil-smp buffer suspension measured following l0 min of shaking gave an index of the lime requirement. (We found that standing the soilbuffer suspension for 2O-l2O min after shaking had no measurable effect on the final suspension ph.) The actual lime requirement was derived from a calibration regression equation, obtained using up to 4l soils, expressing the relationship between soil-buffer ph and the reference lime requirement indicated by titration with Ca(OH)r. There was no difference between the SMP buffers at initial ph values of 7.5 and7.3 for predicting the lime requirement of Ontario soils. Linear regression analysis of the test results using the SMP buffer at an initial ph of 7.5 produced coefficients of determination (r2) ranging from to for the three objective ph values (Table 1).

The accuracy of the lime requirement predicted was considerably improved by the quadratic equations (Table 1; Fig. l). These quadratic equations form the basis of our subsequent work. The SMP-SB (ph 7.5) method was next compared with the double buffer variation (Mclean et al. 1977). The results of a linear and a curvilinear regression of lime requirement to ph 6.5 estimated by titration on SMP-DB indicated soil acidity are shown in Fig. 2. The curvilinear regression analysis slightly improved the r2 value (both linear and curvilinear f were significant at 99Vo level). The standard deviation (sr.) which was for linear regression improved to with the curvilinear regression. However, in soil testing laboratories which must handle a large number of soil samples expeditiously, the slight gain in correlation and accuracy with the SMP-DB method over the SMP-SB method (with curvilinear calibration) may not justify the extra work required in re-equilibrating the soil for a second soil-buffer ph measurement (compare Figs. I and 2). Our data and those oftran and van Lierop (1982) showed that the SMP-SB method was calibrated most advantageously with a curvilinear regression equation. Black, C. A. 196E.
