field soils in Japan are at this P level, although the plant-available P level increases
under reducing conditions (Figs. 5.14 and 5.21). The active Al content in most paddy
field soils in Japan is much lower than those of mature Andisols. P management at a
P recovery rate of around 100% by the balance method can be sustainable.
For farmlands with low plant-available P and residual P, P recovery is low or
variable by both the balance and difference methods. The P recovery rate and the
relation between plant-available P in soil and total P uptake may vary with soil
properties and managements, properties of P fertilizers, application methods of P
fertilizers, properties of crop plants, and climatic conditions. P application methods
designed to improve P recovery are needed.
In uncultivated Andisols, the P concentration of soil water is so dilute that wild
plants concentrate P by an order of 10
3 (Lyu et al. 2016). Many plants obtain dilute P
from soil through a symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhiza. On the other hand,
Brassica plant roots develop as if they were foraging P in Andisol with low plantavailable P (Nanzyo et al. 2002, 2004). Pelletized chicken or swine manure compost
(Fig. 6.35a) is suitable P fertilizer for the phosphorus-foraging root growth of the
Japanese radish in this case. Growth of the Japanese radish is normal, and the P
recovery rate is high. Brassica plants are not symbiotic with arbuscular mycorrhiza.
Further readings for phosphorus in soil are Khasawneh et al. (1980), and Sims
and Shapley (2005).
