Phosphorus; soil fertility; testing methodology
Phosphorus (P) is an essential nutrient for plant growth and reproduction. One of the tasks of soil testing is to identify whether the soil P level is sufficient to meet crop requirements, and if not, to provide an estimate of the quantity of P that must be added for good growth of a given crop. Data for 12 soils (11 series) from Hawaii were used to develop correlations between critical P concentrations in soil solution derived from P sorption isotherms with P extracted with Mehlich 3, Olsen, or modified Truog solutions. Extractable P, in turn, was correlated with P fertilizer requirements. Critical P levels in soil solution reported in the literature for various crops ranged from 0.005mgL-1 for cassava (Manihot esculenta) to 0.30 for lettuce (Lactuca sativa) and to 1.6 for nonmycorrhizal onions (Allium cepa). The P buffer coefficient, defined as the ratio of fertilizer P added to extractable P, averaged 2.2, 4.2, and 8.6 for the modified Truog, Olsen, and Mehlich 3, respectively. Phosphorus requirements for certain crops could be estimated by the following steps: (i) obtaining (possibly one time only) soil solution P levels via P sorption isotherm for a given soil (series or family), (ii) identifying the critical soil solution P for a given crop from the literature, (iii) regressing soil solution P against extractable P, and (iv) establishing relationships between extractable P and fertilizer P.
