Abstract/Contents: | A statistical analysis of the correlation between two phosphorus soil tests and actual phosphorus requirements of turfgrasses. It was found that the TAEX-P test underestimates the amount of phosphorous in alkaline soil, due to a neutralization of its weakly acidic extractant. However, the TAEX-P test is more preferable in acidic soil. The two tests did, however produce similar results when calculating critical P levels. "Field correlation studies using the TAEX soil test over a wider range of Blackland soils and crops are necessary before meaningful fertilizer recommendations for new turfgrass plantings can be developed." |
