Effect of calcium fluoride and calcium carbonate on the chemical composition of the percolated solution in an acid soil
01/Sep/1998
The effects of the application of pure grade CaF2 and CaCO3 on the concentration of Al and other chemical elements in the percolated solution of acid soil samples, collected over an eight month period, were evaluated in a greenhouse experiment in Piracicaba county, State of São Paulo, Brazil. The pH values increased in the percolated solution of soil samples that received both CaCO3 and CaF2. The CaF2 treatments were more efficient than CaCO3 treatments on the withdrawal of Al from […]
