“…Recycling PG is very important for producers of phosphoric acid. Based on PG chemical and physical characteristics, the potential usage is soil conditioner or landfill cover 9 . As the hazardous effects of PG waste increase in the environment owing to continued industrialization, appropriate management is required to reduce the adverse impacts on the ecosystem 10 .…”

Enrichment of calcareous soils with phosphogypsum and poultry manure amendments could increase nutrient availability, improve calcareous chemical characteristics, and enhance barley plant growth. In the current study, phosphogypsum (PG) and poultry manure (PM) were used to determine the effects of PG and PM application on soil fauna diversity, soil fertility, and barley yield. The pot experiment treatments were: C: control; PG1: 4.20 g kg−1 soil; PG2: 6.30 g kg−1 soil; PM1: 4.20 g kg−1 soil; PM: 6.30 g kg−1 soil, and their combinations. The results indicated that the application of PM alone or combined with PG had significant effects on the microbial biomass carbon (MBC), organic matter (OM), soil NPK availability, and yield of barley. Collembola and Prostigmata accounted for 50.0 and 43.3%, respectively, of the total number of soil fauna. Shannon and evenness indices increased significantly in the soil amended with PM alone or combined with PG. Amended soil with PG and/or PM significantly increased the yield and yield components of plants compared to the control. The PM1PG2 treatment increased the yield by 76.2% above the control.

“…Fertilizers that are similar to the chemical composition of partially acidified RP can be indirectly prepared by enriching dry RP with soluble phosphate fertilizers such as simple superphosphate and triple superphosphate under high pressure. The production of these fertilizers, in addition to costing a lot of energy, also causes many environmental problems [67]. The amount of soluble phosphorus of this type of fertilizer depends on the ratio of RP to the used water-soluble phosphorus fertilizer.…”

Rock Phosphate Solubilizing Potential of Soil Microorganisms: Advances in Sustainable Crop Production

Phosphorus (P) is one of the most important elements required for crop production. The ideal soil pH for its absorption by plants is about 6.5, but in alkaline and acidic soils, most of the consumed P forms an insoluble complex with calcium, iron, and aluminum elements and its availability for absorption by the plant decreases. The supply of P needed by plants is mainly achieved through chemical fertilizers; however, in addition to the high price of these fertilizers, in the long run, their destructive effects will affect the soil and the environment. The use of cheap and abundant resources such as rock phosphate (RP) can be an alternative strategy for P chemical fertilizers, but the solubilization of P of this source has been a challenge for agricultural researchers. For this, physical and chemical treatments have been used, but the solution that has recently attracted the attention of the researchers is to use the potential of rhizobacteria to solubilize RP and supply P to plants by this method. These microorganisms, via. mechanisms such as proton secretion, organic and mineral acid production, siderophore production, etc., lead to the solubilization of RP, and by releasing its P, they improve the quantitative and qualitative performance of agricultural products. In this review, addressing the potential of rhizosphere microbes (with a focus on rhizobacteria) as an eco-friendly strategy for RP solubilization, along with physical and chemical solutions, has been attempted.

“…Phosphorus is a non-renewable vital element and an economic mineral resource that is extensively utilized in various elds such as agriculture, chemical industry, pharmaceuticals, light industry, and national defence. [1][2][3][4] As of 2008, China has been the world's largest producer of phosphate rock, accounting for more than 50% of the world's total. 5 A huge industrial system has been formed for the development and utilization of phosphorus resources in China.…”
