1. Can Co-additives Alter the Phosphorus Fertilizer Reaction Pathways in P-Fixing Soils?

In many calcareous and strongly weathered acid soils, only a small proportion of applied fertilizer P is available for plants in the year of application due to rapid transformation of applied P to insoluble forms (“fixed” P) with limited plantavailability. The residual effectiveness of applied P fertilizer decline over time due to further transformation of applied P to more insoluble forms. High nutrient loading intended to overcome P availability limitations in high P-fixing... G. Hettiarachchi
