Predicting soil phosphorus uptake: Evaluating low‐cost chemical alternatives to DGT technology
Abstract Soil phosphorus tests quantify specific fractions but fail to capture P kinetics that govern plant availability. Diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT) technology offers a dynamic measure of P mobilization, outperforming conventional extractions in predicting soil P supply.
