Phosphorus buffer capacity of soils with medium clay and high organic matter content
16/Jun/2025
ABSTRACT Determining soil phosphorus (P) buffer capacity (PBC) is crucial for establishing optimal P fertilizer rates in corrective fertilization practices. However, in subtropical regions, changes in soil chemical and physical properties, such as soil organic matter (SOM) accumulation and texture modifications, can significantly impact PBC values, altering soil adsorption capacity. Consequently, P rates recommended by generalized guidelines for soil correction in these regions may be insufficient to achieve the critical P level in the soil. This study aimed to define […]
