Phytate (myo-inositol hexakisphosphate salts) can constitute a large fraction of the organic P
in soils. As a more recalcitrant form of soil organic P, up to 51 million metric tons of phytate …

Phosphorus (P) is an indispensable element for all life on Earth and, during the past decade,
concerns about the future of its global supply have stimulated much research on soil P and …

Application of biochar to highly weathered tropical soils has been shown to enhance soil
quality and decrease leaching of nutrients. Little, however, is known about the effects of …

A review has been undertaken into how soil organic matter (SOM) affects a range of soil
properties that are important for the productive capacity of soils. The potential effect of …

The poultry industry is one of the largest and fastest growing agro-based industries in the
world. This can be attributed to an increasing demand for poultry meat and egg products …

The Hedley sequential‐phosphorus (P)‐fractionation method has been used in many
countries to study the effects of land‐use and management systems on soil P. Many data …

Macroscopic-to more recent molecular scale investigations have enhanced our knowledge
of soil phosphorus (P) chemistry, including the retention/release mechanisms in soils and …

The effect of organic fertilizers on soil phosphorus (P) availability is usually mainly
associated with the rate and forms of P applied, while they also alter the soil physical …

Best management practices that reduce potential phosphorus (P) loss and provide flexibility
in P fertilizer management are needed to help producers protect water quality while …

Abstract Background and Aims Phosphorus (P) mineralisation from crop residues is usually
predicted from total P or carbon: phosphorus (C: P) ratios. However, these measures have …
