The document presents information on phosphate fixation in soils. It discusses how phosphorus is an essential nutrient for plant growth but is limited in about 40% of the world's soils due to fixation reactions. These reactions reduce the solubility and availability of phosphorus by adsorbing phosphate ions onto soil particles like iron, aluminum, and calcium compounds. The degree of fixation depends on soil properties like mineral composition, pH, and calcium carbonate content. Phosphate can be temporarily or permanently fixed depending on the reaction conditions, reducing phosphorus efficiency in soils to 10-20%.

Fertilizer Control Order (FCO) is a crucial regulatory framework implemented by governments to ensure the quality, availability, and proper use of fertilizers. It serves as a mechanism to monitor and regulate the production, distribution, labeling, and sale of fertilizers, with the ultimate goal of promoting sustainable agriculture and safeguarding the interests of farmers and consumers.
The FCO encompasses a wide range of provisions and regulations that govern various aspects of the fertilizer industry. One of its primary objectives is to ensure the quality of fertilizers available in the market. The FCO sets specific standards for nutrient content, physical characteristics, impurities, and labeling requirements. By enforcing these standards, the FCO aims to prevent the sale of substandard or adulterated fertilizers that could have detrimental effects on crop productivity and soil health.
Another key aspect of the FCO is the regulation of fertilizer pricing. Governments often intervene to control the prices of fertilizers to make them affordable for farmers. The FCO may include provisions to monitor and control the pricing of fertilizers, ensuring that they remain accessible to farmers while preventing price manipulation and exploitation.
The FCO also addresses the licensing and registration of fertilizer manufacturers, importers, and distributors. Manufacturers and importers are required to obtain licenses or registrations from the designated regulatory authorities. This helps in maintaining a record of fertilizer producers and suppliers, ensuring accountability, and enabling traceability in case of any quality-related issues or non-compliance.
To ensure compliance with the FCO, regulatory bodies are empowered with inspection and monitoring mechanisms. They conduct regular inspections of fertilizer manufacturing facilities, storage sites, and distribution channels to verify compliance with quality standards, labeling requirements, and other provisions of the FCO. Non-compliance can lead to penalties, fines, or even suspension of licenses, acting as a deterrent for violations and promoting adherence to the regulations.
The FCO also addresses the issue of fertilizers' safe and efficient use. It may mandate the inclusion of information on fertilizer labels regarding dosage, application methods, and safety precautions. This helps farmers make informed decisions about fertilizer application, preventing excessive or improper use that can lead to environmental pollution, nutrient imbalances, and crop damage. The FCO may also encourage the promotion of organic and biofertilizers, providing incentives and support for their production and utilization.

How the pH of the external solution and metabolic activity of plants influen...AbFahim
How Internal (Plant) and External (Environmental) Factors Influence Nutrient Supply to the Plant Root by Mass flow
The plant loses water through transpiration. That's why there creates a vacuum in the plant. Then the plant absorbs water from the soil. This phenomenon is known as mass flow. It also takes the nutritional substances dissolved in the water at that time. As there happens a plant-environment interaction, there are a wide range of plant and environmental factors which can influence the nutrient supply to the roots of the plant
Internal Factors or Plant Factors
Species and Variety
Water absorption by mass flow depends on the species and variety of the plants. Such as Eucalyptus absorbs much water than others. High yielding varieties uptake much water. In this way, it influences the nutrient uptake.
Leaf Surface and Age of leafs
Leaf Surface and leafage affect transpiration. Broader and younger leaves mean more transpiration. And transpiration is directly related to mass flow. More transpiration means more mass flow and more nutrient uptake.
Influx to the Apoplasm
For effective use of the nutrients, they need to reach the stele for transportation to the entire plant body. Endodermis creates a barrier to reach the nutrient through apoplasm.
Plant Development Stage
Transpiration and water uptakes depend on the age of the plant. So Nutrient uptake is affected.
Metabolic Activity
Ion accumulation depends on the expenditure of energy through metabolic activity like respiration. Thus ion uptake can be affected by metabolic activity. Such as, with lowering the oxygen tension, the uptake of potassium and phosphate is decreased.
External or Environmental Factors
Air Humidity
As the humidity of air decreased, the plan losses more water through transpiration. On the other hand, mass flow increased. After all the nutrient uptake is affected.
Concentration of the Solution
If the available water is highly concentrated with the nutrient then the plant will get more nutrients. So, applying fertilizer can increase nutrient uptake.
Effects of pH
Nutrient uptake is largely affected by the pH of certain soil. pH influences the cations and anions of the solution. P, Zn, Fe are less available in alkali soil. Again Al3+ and Mn2+ inhibits the plant growth in the acid soil.
Temperature
Due to high temperature the rate of transpiration increases. Thus water starts absorbing more water through mass flow. Consequently, it increases the nutrient uptake.
Soil properties
Soil texture, structure, porosity can affect the nutrient uptake

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

3. Phosphate fixation
RECOGNIZED BY : THOMAS WAY (1950)
Phosphorus fixation - The reduction of solubility of
fertilizer P that is added to the soil.
Phosphorous is element to plant growth ,metabolism and
reproduction and is a limiting factor to plant productivity
on an estimated 40 % of the world’ arable soil.
The main inorganic forms of phosphorous are HPO42- and
H2po4-.(Orthophosphate anions)
4. These anions are highly reactive and quickly engage in
adsorption reaction on the the surface of mineral particles
and organic matter in the soil.
These “fixation” reactions decrease the availability of
soluble phosphates for plant uptake.
The type of orthophosphate ions that exist in the soil are
primarily dependent on pH and soil type
5. SOIL SOLUTION-ORTHOPHOSPHATE FORM
(3-phases)
Orthophosphate are mainly found in three phases or pools.
It is the only pool from which plant take up P and is the only pool with
any measurable mobility.
The active P pool is in a solid phase, formed through :
1) Loosely held inorganic complexes and are usually held on the soil
surface.
2)phosphates that react with the element such as iron ,aluminium or
calcium to form soluble solid.
3)Organic P that is easily mineralized.
6. FATE OF SOLUBLE P
phosphorus fixation reactions involving iron oxide and
aluminum oxide. While the adsorbed phosphate is labile
and considered to be in a reversible (desorbable)
condition, it may be months or years before biological or
chemical conditions exist to release the phosphate.
2.The phosphate anion is not strongly adsorbed and may
return to the soluble phase over time. However, labile P is
only a very small fraction of total soil P.
3.Adsorption reactions can also occur between phosphates
and organic matter.
4.Organic solubilization is accomplished through microbial
mineralization.
7. FATE OF INSOLUBLE P(fixed pool)
The Fixed pool of inorganic and organic phosphate
compounds are very insoluble and may remain in soils for
years without being made available to the soil.
2.Some very slow conversion between the Fixed pool and
the Active P pool does occur in soils.
1.Phosphate fixation reduces P efficiency to 10-20% --
either temporarily or permanently depending on the stage
of the fixation reactions.
8. phosphate fixation reactionsbetween iron / aluminum and phosphate
through the creation of coordinate (chelation) bidentate linkages.
This results in very strong bonds that take a much longer time to
desorb.
2.These bond configurations are much stronger than single atom
bonds (monodentate bonds). Processes that form these types of
adsorption complexes are often referred to as chemisorption,
specific adsorption, or ligand exchange.
Phosphates trapped by a metal mantle coating are usually deemed as
permanently fixed and cannot be desorbed (released) under normal
soil conditions.
3.This usually occurs under very acidic conditions.
9. In alkaline soils, soluble phosphate ions quickly react with
calcium to form a sequence of products of decreasing
solubility.
initial fixation reaction of calcium carbonate with
phosphoric acid resulting in the formation of Dicalcium
Phosphate.
2.Continued reactions between calcium carbonate and
phosphate ions result in formation of even more insoluble
phosphate compounds.
10. FACTORS RESPONSIBLE FOR PHOSPHATE
FIXATION
# 1. Nature and Amount of Soil Components:
Adsorption and desorption reactions are affected by
the type of surfaces contacted by phosphorus in the soil
solution.
(a)Hydrous Oxides of Iron and Aluminium:
When iron and aluminium oxide compounds is soil are less
crystalline, the phosphate fixing capacity of the soil be more
because of greater surface areas. However, crystalline
hydrous oxides are usually capable of fixing more phosphorus
than layer silicates
11. Fixation of phosphorus by oxides of Fe and Al
takes place over a wide pH range that is shown
below:
12. (b) Type of Clay
Phosphorus is retained or fixed to a greater extent by 1: 1
than by 2: 1 clays and this may be due to the higher
amounts of hydrated oxides of Fe and Al associated with
1: 1 type clays. The phosphate fixing capacity of clay
minerals may be found in the following order:
Montmorillonite > Vermiculite > Kaolinite > Muscovite.
13. Amount of clay
(c) Amount of Clay:
Soils containing large quantities of clay will fix more
phosphorus than that of soils containing small amount of
clay.
(d)Amorphous Colloids:
Amorphous alumina silicate minerals like allophane have a
large negative charge which is partly or entirely balanced
by complex aluminium cations. Phosphorus becomes
adsorbed by reacting with this aluminium.
14. (e) Calcium Carbonate:
Calcium carbonate (CaCO3) exerts significant influence on
phosphate fixation. Usually higher the content of CaCO3 in
soil, the higher is the fixation of phosphate. Phosphate
may be adsorbed on the surface of calcium carbonate
particles. The solubility of phosphatic minerals has also
been found to be depressed in the presence of CaCO3 (due
to formation of less/soluble tricalcium phosphate and
latter carbonate apatite).
Exchangeable calcium has also found to be effective in
phosphate fixation (due to linkage between phosphate and
soil colloid via calcium).
15. #2 pH
Soil pH has a profound influence on the amount and manner in which soluble
phosphorus becomes fixed. Between pH 4.0 and 8.0, H2PO4 and HPO4
– are the
principal phosphate ions in soil. Above pH 9.0, PO4
3- dominates but H2PO4
– is
still present. Different mechanisms of phosphate fixation operate at different
pH levels.
At pH 2-5 the fixation is chiefly due to the formation of Fe and Al-phosphates.
Al pH 4.5-7.5, phosphates are fixed on the surface of the clay colloids and at
pH 6-10 phosphate is precipitated usually by Ca and Mg. So the fixation of
phosphate in relation to different soil pH
17. 2.pH:

Form of available P at low pH: H2PO4
