In this study, the highest sugar lime rates (80 and 160 t/ha) turned out to have a positive effect, decreasing the proportion of megaaggregates and increasing that of macroaggregates. Increases in the rates of sugar lime slightly increased the proportion of microaggregates as well. The structure coefficient was the highest in treatments 4 and 5 (80 and 160 t/ha), indicating that higher amounts of sugar lime improve soil structure. The total stable macroaggregate content proved to be higher in the sugar lime treatments than in the control. The use of different sugar lime rates did not significantly affect the stability of microaggregates.
