Phosphorus (P) Nutrient Map - Sample
Interpretation
Phosphorus (P) is a key macronutrient involved in energy transfer, root development, and reproductive processes such as flowering and seed formation. It is crucial during early crop stages and influences long-term productivity.
This crop map identifies phosphorus levels across your field, helping you optimize fertilization and detect areas with potential yield limitations due to phosphorus imbalances.
📊 Phosphorus Levels & Interpretation
The numbers shown in this table may change depending on the type of crop analyzed and its consequently stage.
| Level | Range (% in dry matter) | Interpretation |
|---|---|---|
| Critical | < 0.2% | Very low availability. Severe limitations in root growth, energy transport, and overall crop development. Immediate correction required. |
| Low | 0.2 – 0.3% | Insufficient for high-yield performance. Early-stage deficiency may cause stunting and dark green or purplish leaves. |
| Medium | 0.31 – 0.41% | Adequate levels for most crops. Supports healthy development and reproductive transition. |
| High | 0.42 – 0.5% | Nutrient-rich zones. Monitor for luxury consumption or potential antagonisms with micronutrients like zinc. |
| Over-sufficiency | > 0.5% | Excess phosphorus. May lead to micronutrient deficiencies (e.g., Zn, Fe, etc.) and unnecessary environmental losses |
| Irregular Material | — | Crops in this area exhibit heterogeneous nutrient profiles and biomass, indicating great variability in field conditions. Further analysis is recommended to better understand these differences. |
💡 Tip: Phosphorus uptake is highly influenced by soil temperature, pH, and root activity. Early detection through maps helps time applications more precisely.
