Effect of Land Use and Soil Depth on Soil Phosphorus Fractions

The aims of the experiments were to determine the effect of land use and soil depths on soil phosphorus fractions. Soil samples were taken systematically from dug profile pits at 0-20, 20-40 and 40-60 cm. Soil samples were characterized and P fractionation analyses were done in triplicates using standard procedures. Data generated were analysed usi...
