Owing to high aluminum levels, soil acidity limits agricultural productivity in tropical regions. Liming is essential for increasing the soil pH and neutralizing toxic aluminum, and its effectiveness depends on water availability from rainfall or irrigation. The objective of this study was to evaluate whether different irrigation intervals and depths modify the reactions of limestone applied in an Oxisol. The study was conducted in an agricultural greenhouse at Rondonópolis-MT, with 6 treatments, in a 3 × 2 factorial scheme, with three irrigation intervals (2, 5 and 10 days) and two irrigation depths (50 mm and 100 mm). The irrigation depths were divided into five applications according to the intervals described in the treatments. The variables evaluated were the soil pH; potential acidity (H++Al3+); exchangeable Ca2+, Mg2+ and Al3+ contents; base saturation (V%); and cation exchange capacity (CEC). Analysis of variance and Tukey’s test (p<0.05) were used. There was no significant interaction effect among the intervals and depths for the variables measured, except for the aluminum content and aluminum saturation. The 100 mm water depth increased the soil pH, base saturation, and calcium and magnesium contents by 5, 15, 13, and 10%, respectively, and reduced the potential acidity. Moreover, calcium saturation was greater in the 2-day interval, and magnesium saturation was greater in the 2- and 5-day intervals. The 100 mm depth, which was applied at intervals of 2 days, resulted in higher gravimetric moisture, which accelerated the limestone reaction. These results indicate that the 100 mm depth promoted greater availability of calcium, magnesium and base saturation in the soil, whereas the 50 mm depth resulted in fewer changes in these attributes.
