Abstract:In this paper, the movement and transformation of phosphorus (P) in fertilizer microsites in red soil were studied by an incubation experiment using soil column. The movement distances of added P were the same at both 7 day and 28 day, 1.4 cm for MCP 0.2 g and 2.0 cm for MCP 0.5g. Most of P moved into soil was absorbed but still in available form in fertilizer microsites. The concentrations of water-extractable P, acid-extractable P and available P have significant negative linear relationships with distance from fertilizer placement in the region of P movement. The amount of P application has significant effects on the concentration distributions of water-extractable P, acid-extractable P and available P in fertilizer microsites. However, incubation time has significant effect on only water-extractable P.
