Phosphorus is an essential macro-nutrient for plant growth and sustainable soil management. Phosphorus nutrition can be challenging in acidic soils (e.g. Queensland) and alkaline soils (e.g. South Australia). To achieve sufficient nutrition‚ the soil needs to have a relatively high pH‚ high organic matter content‚ and moist conditions. Specific soil orders such as Vertosols‚ Kandosols‚ Sodosols‚ Rudosols‚ and Calcarosols‚ lack the requirements for phosphorus nutrition. The availability of phosphorus
