A mathematical description is presented of the effects through time of phosphorus fertilizer application on the growth of Stylosanthes hamata cv. Verano and on changes in extractable soil phosphorus on a red and a yellow earth in the semi-arid tropics. For the five years of observations, the models used provided reasonable descriptions of both aspects. It was not possible, however, to clearly demonstrate which of two functions tested better described the decreasing effectiveness of phosphorus with time. The simpler exponential function provided as good a fit to the yield data as did the function proposed by Barrow, whilst for the extractable phosphorus data the latter did explain a significantly higher proportion of the variance, but its coefficients could not be estimated with great precision. The results show that the phosphorus requirements of such pastures on these soils are modest. Extractable soil phosporus levels of approximately 12 �g g-1 in either 0.005 M H2SO4 or 0.5 M NaHCO3 are indicated as being adequate to ensure near-maximum yields of the legume. Long-term maintenance fertilizer needs as predicted by the models are discussed.

The vegetable utilization rate of phosphorus fertilizer in greenhouse condition was low in the season of fertilizer application, resulting in phosphorus accumulation in the top soil year after year. The risk of phosphorus loss through leaching increased under the circumstance of inappropriate watering management and fertilization. In this study, leaching experiments using columns packed with a greenhouse soil with different soil phosphorus status (low, medium and high levels) were carried out under greenhouse condition to investigate the impact of fertilizer application on phosphorus leaching from greenhouse soil. The fertilization treatments included no fertilizer [CK], organic manure and chemical fertilizer [M+NPK], organic manure [M], chemical fertilizer [NPK]. The vertical migration and leaching loss of soil phosphorus were measured. Results were as follows: (1) total phosphorus (TP) content increased with the extension of leaching time. In the low-level- and medium-level-phosphorus greenhouse soils, TP concentration in the effluent increased with the application of manure; (2) In the high-level-phosphorus greenhouse soil, phosphorus in the effluent from the treatment with the use of fertilizer was the highest TP, with accumulative leaching amount of 2.85 mg in 51 days. The leaching of phosphorus became small after 36 days of leaching experiment. Our study showed that application of manure and chemical fertilizer at proper rates according to soil phosphorus status is beneficial to reduce the leaching loss of phosphorus to the environment.

The effects of different cropping systems, fertilizer, and lime on soil phosphorus (P) dynamics in soils developed under forest vegetation have received little attention. The objective of this study was to develop an understanding of P fractions and transformations in long-term rotation plots on a Luvisolic soil at Breton, Alberta. Results have shown that crop rotation and fertilizer application have affected more inorganic soil phosphorus (Pi) and organic phosphorus (Po) fractions, as determined by a sequential extraction procedure. Continuously cropped treatments, which had not received fertilizer, resulted in P drawdown of resin-extractable Pi (resin-Pi), sodium bicarbonate-extractable Pi (bicarb-Pi), sodium hydroxide-extractable Pi (NaOH-Pi), sodium bicarbonate-extractable Po (bicarb-Po), sodium hydroxide-extractable Po (NaOH-Po) and hydrochloric acid-extractable Pi (HCl-Pi) fractions. Only the residual-P fraction (insoluble Pi and stable Po forms) was unaffected. Addition of fertilizer had an effect on all P fractions except the NaOH-Po fraction. Phosphorus fertilizer treatments positively affected the Pi fractions and N fertilizer positively affected the bicarb-Po fraction. Lime application affected soil pH, which lowered NaOH-Pi levels and increased HCl-Pi levels through formation of more stable calcium phosphate compounds. Addition of lime also resulted in lower bicarb-Po levels. Cropping without using phosphate fertilizer has resulted in a 30–40% decline in total-P in the Breton plots in the Ap horizon. Continuous cropping, with a forage crop in the rotation, coupled with modest N and P fertilizer application, had the most positive effects on P cycling and transformations. Summerfallow had no apparent beneficial effects on P transformations. Key words: Soil P transformations, Luvisolic soil, P bioavailability, sequential extraction

Several methods of evaluating the phosphorus status of soils for the growth of pasture plants were compared. NaHCO3 and NH4F in HCl were the most suitable extractants used. On these soils, differing widely in origin and fertilizer history, phosphorus values of 30 p.p.m, as determined by three of the methods distinguished responsive from unresponsive soils. For the other, the bicarbonate method of Olsen et al. (1954), the corresponding value was 15 p.p.m. The evidence suggests that in the soils examined, all inorganic forms of soil phosphorus, as determined by the method of Chang and Jackson (1957), contributed in some degree to the pasture plants needs. The principal source of available phosphorus, however, was the aluminium phosphates. On the other hand, the evidence suggests that the principal loss in the availability of residual phosphorus to the plant may be through its conversion to organic forms. Iron phosphates appeared to be the least available of the inorganic forms. The common ability of the four successful methods to efficiently extract phosphorus from the aluminium source appears to be the prime reason for their measuring the soil phosphorus status for plants equally well. The physical nature of aluminium phosphate, however, has a marked effect on its ability to supply the plant's phosphorus needs. A crystalline form was less available than an amorphous one. The greater availability of the amorphous forms, of both iron and aluminium phosphates, appeared to depend more upon their solubility than on their positional availability due to the greater specific surface presented. Fertilizer application enriches the aluminium phosphate content of the soils, but, in these experiments, the quantities found were related significantly to the total applications made in the previous three years only.

The aim of this work is to evaluate the changes of Mehlich 3 – P, K, Ca and Mg contents in soil during a long-term field experiments with sewage sludge, farmyard manure (FYM) and mineral NPK (NPK) application, compared to the control non-fertilized treatment. The experiment was established at the Humpolec and Suchdol sites (Czech Republic). Potatoes, wheat and barley were grown in crop rotation. Fertilizing system was based on the same nitrogen dose of 330 kg N/ha per one crop rotation. Archive soil samples from the beginning of the experiment (1996) and from the end of each year’s crop rotation (1999, 2002, 2005, 2008 and 2011) were analyzed. In spite of the different soil-climatic conditions of the studied sites, very similar tendencies of P, K, Ca and Mg contents changes after the fertilizing systems used were observed in the soil. In case of the same nitrogen dose (330 kg N/ha), sewage sludge appeared to be better source of bioavailable soil phosphorus compared to the farmyard manure and NPK. On the contrary, FYM was a better source of bioavailable potassium and magnesium, despite the lower total magnesium content in FYM. The NPK treatment was the best long-term source of bioavailable potassium.
