Abstract
To assess the changes in the forms and concentrations of P, aggregate stability, Ferrosols was amended with two different rates (0.3 and 0.6 g/kg) of limestone (X1 and X2) with control (CK) as 0g/kg. After 70 days, the incubated soils were analyzed for microbial biomass P (MBP), total P (total Phosphorus), available Phosphorus (available Phosphorus), Hedley P fractions (water soluble- Phosphorus; NaHCO3-IP; NaHCO3-OP; NaOH-IP; NaOH-OP; HCL-P and Residual Phosphorus), 31P composition, and water stable aggregate sizes (WSA). The highest, total P, available P, water soluble-P, NaHCO3-IP, NaOH-IP, HCL-P and Residual P were measured in the X2. The highest content of MBP was measured in X1 in contrary X2 shows the lowest content. Also limestone decreased the concentration of NaHCO3-OP and NaOH-OP in X1 and X2 treatments. On the other hand liming results in highest value of WSA representing the microbial activities result in and contribute on bonding agent for macro-aggregation. The high orthophosphate is largely caused by high limestone and low differences between the treatments. Limestone application increases total and available and labile P pools, stimulates microbial activities, in turn increases macro-aggregation, and thus soil quality. 31P NMR spectroscopy revealed that orthophosphate was the major inorganic compounds 66% in bulk soil and WSA sizes. Followed by monoester and diester were the major organic P compounds 20% and 13% unknown 6% respectively. The results of sequential extraction and 31P NMR spectroscopy indicate that application of limestone not only increased the amount of inorganic P forms, but also influenced the structural composition and bioavailability of P in acid soil.
