Michael McLaughlin Uni of Adelaide, ‘Two developments could disrupt how fertilizers will look in the future; the green nitrogen revolution and the nitrogen green revolution, along with waste reduction targets and the rise of green chemistry.’ #IFAWashingtonDC

Local research. 4 years of trials in potatoes, 27 nontraditional treatments, 32 products: no yield or profit differences from grower standard practice for any of the treatments. "Snake oil" is listed in the keywords. 😀 Open access. acsess.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.100…

Well done and thanks very much for all your achievements as President of Soil Science Australia to benefit soil science & soil scientists Vanessa Wong !! The future is also rosy with Edward Scott being elected new President…..

The SA Soil Science 2022 Pioneer Lecture is today honoring the significant and lasting contribution of Dr. Pichu “Renga” Rengasamy. Thank you to Dr Ehsan Tavakkoli for presenting this important lecture outlining Renga contribution to Soil Science #soilscience Soil Science Australia

Article alert! Zinc in ammoniated phosphate fertilizers: Solid-phase speciation, solubility, and use of barrier coatings to enhance zinc availability doi.org/10.1002/saj2.2… da Silva et al. @RCdaSilva Fien Degryse Michael McLaughlin Waite Research Institute Faculty of Sciences, Engineering and Technology Uni of Adelaide #OpenAccess

In our latest article, we demonstrate that: (i) Zn speciation is not a reliable predictor of fertiliser Zn effectiveness; (ii) a coated barrier between P and Zn improves plant Zn uptake, (iii) Zn water solubility is maximised by decreasing granule pH. acsess.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.10…

Research scientist position in our group now available. Experience in P biogeochemistry is preferred, but not essential. Large focus will be on stable and radioactive isotopes for evaluating soil-water-crop C, N, P and S transfers. illinois.csod.com/ux/ats/careers… iSEE at U of I
