 SCOPE 54 - Phosphorus in the global environment - chap 5 Phosphorus Fertility Management In Agroecosystems
A strong correlation between the various forms of extractable Al and the pH increase in a NaF-soil suspension (Perrott et al., 1976a, 1976b) has led Sanchez and Uehara (1980) and Singh and Gilkes (1991) to suggest that the NaF test be used as a P sorption index to modify estimates for crop P requirements.
In P-fertilised soils, Fox (1981) argues that variations in the relative yield of crops can best be explained by the concentration of Pi in the soil solution rather than the quantity of labile P (extractive method) on the soil surface.
