I’d apply 800 lbs/acre of Pelletized lime each year until pH approached 6.5. Then maintain with approximately 400 lbs each year to maintain. At current pricing that’s $140/$70 per acre. Cheaper than fertilizer currently.
There are liquid fertilizer options you can use until you get pH in the desired range.
Your soil CEC will determine how fast the pH changes and also how long you can go between lime applications. Low CEC = change with less lime per acre but shorter residual time. Improving OM % as CNC mentioned is about the only way to improve CEC. Use crops like millet and sorghum with dense root systems to improve OM and do not do deep tillage.
"Cull" is just another four letter word...
