P SCHOOL

Phosphorus fertilizer forms – I want to know.

Super, MAP, APP, Phos acid, Guano, plenty to choose from, which one for me?

Plants absorb the majority of their phosphorus from the soil solution as orthophosphate regardless of the original form of phosphorus applied or existing in soil functions. Largely, pH controls these functions, and corresponds to iron and aluminium in the soil in this region.

What form is recommended for your soils, how do you make good decisions about phosphorus form and what are the differences? Just some of the key messages at P SCHOOL. 


Registration still open for IPM MasterClass P SCHOOL. 26th June 2014.


Four key topic will be covered:
Dr. Sean Mason - Soils and Phosphorus – what is really going on?- Availability, uptake and soil utilization, what does testing tell me?
Dr. Glenn McDonald - Role and function of phosphorus in crops
Plant uptake and utilisation, how much is needed, and what does it do?
Dr. Ann McNeill - Biology and soil health – does it work?
Role of microbiology in building soil health and quality, and P availability.
Dr. Sarah Noack - Fertiliser decisions, forms, testing and research
Soil and tissue testing, what will I apply and how much?
