3. Using the Nutrient Chart below, identify the elements may be present but unavailable in an Alkaline soil, pH 8.52 Are there any that are optimally available?
4. Soil pH How soil pH affects availability of plant nutrients High Medium Low 4.0 Strongly Acid 4.5 Medium Sightly Acid IRON Very Very Slightly Slightly Add Acid Alkaline MANGANESE BORON COPPER AND ZINC 5.0 5.5 6.0 NITROGEN PHOSPHORUS POTASSIUM SULPHUR Optimum soil pH range: 6.2 CALCIUM MAGNESIUM 6.5 7.0 Slightly Medium Alkaline Alkaline 7.5 7.3 8.0 Strongly Alkaline MOLYBDENUM 8.5 9.0 9.5 10.0
3. Calcium, magnesium and phosphorus are the three types of elements which are present but they are not avilable in alkaline soil whose pH is 8.5.Yes phosphorus is the one which is optimally avilable.Phosphorus
