Manure characteristics can influence the potential for P transfer in runoff following land application of manures. This research assessed the influence of manure characteristics on P solubility in calcareous soils using manures from poultry (Gallus Domisticus) fed a variety of grain-based diets with the manures containing a range of total P (5.6–16.4 g P kg), water-extractable P (WEP, 0.9–4.7 g...

to evaluate the relationships between soil inorganic phosphorus p (pi) fractions, the soil p test and plant parameters such as plant p uptake, dry matter yield, tissue p concentra-tion and relative yield, glasshouse experiments and chemical analyses were conducted on 13 calcareous soils from six agricultural and seven adjacent bushland (virgin soil) sites. four rates of p (0, 15, 30, 60 mg/kg s...

based studies are conducted, the effects of Al are usually confounded with other factors such as levels of P, Ca, Despite good resistance to acid-soil stresses, white clover (TriMo, Mn, Zn, organic acids, and other soil components folium repens L.) is not found on some acid soils. Our objectives (Edmeades et al., 1995; Villagarcia et al., 2001). An exwere to develop a large-leafed white clover ...

application of phosphorus (p) fertilizers as solid or liquid fertilizers to soils leads to re-actions of orthophosphate ions with various soil components which remove p from the so-lution phase and convert it to less soluble phosphates. this study was aimed at determin-ing soil properties that affect the rate of phosphate retention in 28 contrasting calcareous soils from different geographical ...

metals sorption on solid phase from solution is one of the most important chemical processes controlling their bioavailability in soils. nickel (ni) sorption characteristics in 20 calcareous soils of iran were investigated in a range from 5.87 to 751.23 mgl-1 ni concentration in solution using sorption isotherms. ni sorption isotherm exhibited strong nonlinear behavior for all soils. the result...
