Abstract
Phosphate rock (PR) is recommended for application to acid soils where phosphorus (P) is an important limiting nutrient on plant growth. The past 50 years have seen the accumulation of considerable knowledge regarding the factors affecting the agronomic effectiveness of PR for direct application. However, much less information is available on other effects associated with PR use, i.e. secondary nutrients, micronutrients, liming effect, and hazardous elements. This chapter presents a review of the information available in literature that is relevant to these other effects.
