The availability of P is influenced by the application location of this element to the soil, affecting the adsorption, precipitation and fixation due to the reduction of contact with the soil. This study, carried out in a greenhouse, aimed to calibrate P soil concentrations for Eucalyptus pellita growth as affected by fertilizer placement. Samples of two Oxisols were used. The treatment consisted of 14 combinations of seven P rates, which were placed in holes in the upper mid part of […]

Localized application of P in the soil has great influence on its availability because it reduces de adsorption reactions, precipitation and fixation, due to the lowered soil contact surface area. This study, carried out in a greenhouse, aimed to calibrate P soil concentrations for corn growth as affected by fertilizer placement. Samples of two Oxisols (LVAd and LVAm) were used. The treatment consisted of 14 combinations of 7 P rates, which were placed in holes in the upper mid part of […]
