Almost 41,000 farmers applied to participate in the National Liming Programme, looking to spread 4.5 million tonnes of lime.
However, due to the level of demand, the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine has confirmed it will have to limit approvals to stay within the allocated budget for the programme.
