Effect of lime on the availability of phosphorus in superphosphate (acid phosphate)
1928
Harris, H.C.
1. A review of the literature is given. 2. Pot experiments, in which a number of different plants were used, were made on both Ontario loam and Volusia silt loam. 3. The results of the pot experiments stantiated by the Neubauer method. 4. Chemical analyses were made of superphosphate (acid phosphate), both mixed and not mixed with lime. Reversion occurred, but most of it seemed to take place in the analytical process. 5. The general conclusion is that mixing lime and superphosphate (acid phosphate) before applying them to the soil is not detrimental to the yields of most kinds of plants but may be to some.
