Phosphorus and aluminium mobilisation in ferralsols: effects of local sediment amendments, liming and straw application in a lab study

Phosphorus (P) activation is a major challenge for agriculture on tropical soils like Ferralsols in East Africa, mainly due to soil acidity and high mobility of aluminium (Al). Strategies such as local sediment amendments and liming have shown potential to improve P availability in these soils. In t...
