$\huge\sf{๑Fertlizer→}$

●Super phosphate.

________________________________♥

$\huge\sf{๑Super\:Phosphate! }$

●Superphosphate is a fertiliser produced by the action of concentrated sulphuric acid on powdered phosphate rock

●Phosphorus (P) is frequently a limiting nutrient to the growth of pasture. Generally, soils in Australia are depleted in phosphorus due to weathering and erosion.

●Agriculture removes phosphorus from the soil in farm products

●The minerals in soils have the ability to bind to phosphorus. Some soils (basalt derived clay) bind strongly to phosphorus, others sands less so

$\huge\sf{๑Its\:need→}$

●Phosphorus (P) is the most commonly applied nutrient in south west victoria and so determining the optimum amount to apply has significant impact on farming systems and profitability

●It helps run the ‘power stations ’ inside every plant cell and has a key role in energy storage and transfer. Phosphorus is necessary for all growth processes and for the nodulation of rhizhobia bacteria and nitrogen fixation

$\huge\sf{๑Importance!}$

●Most Australian soils are naturally low in phosphorus due to extensive weathering. While native plants are adapted to these low levels, introduced crops and pasture grasses are not, which means you need to apply phosphorus fertilisers to soil to achieve productive yield

●Australian farmers use much more phosphorus than nitrogen and potassium compared with farmers in Europe and usa
