The Absorption of Phosphates and Potassium by Soils explains how soils control the levels of key plant nutrients and why that matters for crop health. It shows how phosphate and potassium move between solid soil and soil moisture, and why the absorbed material can influence root-zone chemistry.
This volume presents experiments on fourteen soils to show how absorption, leaching, and the soil’s surface behavior shape the concentration of nutrients in the soil solution. It connects fundamental soil chemistry to practical fertilizer usage and soil management, with clear results and practical implications for maintaining nutrient balance.
What you’ll experience
- How soils absorb phosphate and potassium from solutions and how this affects soil moisture chemistry
- How absorbed nutrients are removed from the soil by water, and what that means for plant availability
- The similarities and differences across soil types in preserving nutrient concentration
- A look at the mathematical description that helps explain absorption and solution behavior
Ideal for readers of soil chemistry and practical fertilization strategies.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book features research on the behavior of several soil types toward phosphate and potassium in a comprehensive study of plant growth in relation to the soil and development of fertilizer usage. The author demonstrates that the relative concentration of these two nutrients in soil moisture is largely controlled by the absorptive power of the soil. Contrary to expectations, the concentration tends to remain constant through absorption. The author asserts that different soils will yield solutions of the same order of concentration, thus disproving the theory that readily soluble phosphate compounds in the soil are the primary factor in regulating soil moisture's concentration. The research presented in this book is highly significant, as it provides a new perspective for the study of plant growth in relation to the soil.
