PHOSPHATE FERTILIZATION

Bifox-20 fertilization recommendation should be assessed by a competent agronomist taking into account key factors like crop specie, soil characteristics, climate, machinery, among others.

LIMING EFFECT

Bifox-20, on top of being an efficient source of P for crops, ameliorates soil acidity conditions by increasing the soil pH and exchangeable Ca content and mitigates soluble Al at root zone which is toxic for crops. From this perspective, when compared against CaCO₃ a 50% neutralization effectiveness could be considered. The magnitude of the liming effect will depend on several factors like soil type and clay mineralogy, soluble or exchangeable Al, OM content, among others.
