Reducing Egypt rock phosphate use in Zea mays cultivation on an acid soil using clinoptilolite zeolite
Insufficient supply of P for initial growth of crops does not only limit N uptake but it also leads to poor yield of crops. In acidic soils of the tropics, sorption of P occurs mainly on surfaces of Fe and Al oxides and hydroxides. Most of the P added through mineral fertilizers is fixed by high Al...
