My feed co-op sells powdered dolomite lime for $5.00/50 lbs. bagged.
Same thing in pelleted form is $6.00/50 lbs. bagged.

I'm not familiar with anyone who uses hydrated lime in gardening or farming.

I had 24 Tons of dolomite lime delivered and spread on my hay fields this spring for something under $800. total. It was well worth it. My fields greened up amazingly, and that was with a very hot and dry (for us) summer.

I think the garden lime Espoma sells (in the little 4 or 8 lb. bags) is dolomite lime also.
