Resource Explained

Organic phosphorus (P) is essential for high crop yields, but global P reserves are depleting. Both conventional and organic growers could benefit from algae as a potential bio-based substitute. This study aims to compare the P availability and mineralization rate of algae to other synthetic and organic fertilizers across soils with varying textures and P statuses.
