Matching Phosphorus Fertilizer Types with Soil Type in Rice Cultivation Optimizes Yield, Soil Phosphorus Availability, and Phosphorus Fertilizer Use Efficiency
Inefficient phosphorus (P) fertilizer application often accumulates soil P, wasting valuable phosphate resources and contributing to environmental pollution. Given the suboptimal P fertilizer use efficiency (PUE), understanding soil P dynamics and selecting appropriate fertilizers is crucial. Fluvo-...

description | Inefficient phosphorus (P) fertilizer application often accumulates soil P, wasting valuable phosphate resources and contributing to environmental pollution. Given the suboptimal P fertilizer use efficiency (PUE), understanding soil P dynamics and selecting appropriate fertilizers is crucial. Fluvo-aquic soil and yellow-cinnamon soils were used in a rice pot trial to compare five P fertilizer types: single superphosphate (SSP), diammonium phosphate (DAP), calcium magnesium phosphate (CMP), triple superphosphate (TSP), and ammonium polyphosphate (APP), alongside a no P, control (CK). In fluvo-aquic soil, TSP and APP significantly increased rhizosphere P availability at anthesis, while SSP increased yield and shoot P accumulation at maturity. In yellow-cinnamon soil, DAP had the highest rhizosphere P availability at anthesis, while APP significantly increased shoot P accumulation at anthesis and shoot P accumulation and grain yield at maturity. Moreover, PUE was highest with SSP and CMP in fluvo-aquic soil and APP and TSP in yellow-cinnamon soil. Throughout the experiment, increased soil alkaline phosphatase activity promoted NaOH-Po conversion to NaHCO<sub>3</sub>-Pi, increasing rice shoot P uptake, yield, and PUE in both soils. Based on the above findings, it is recommended to apply SSP and TSP to fluvo-aquic soil and APP and TSP to yellow-cinnamon soil to achieve higher yield and PUE, which can be further confirmed by subsequent field-scale studies. |
