"D OCK phosphate is a poorer source of rapidly avail•**able phosphorus to the plant than many phosphate fertilizers (2, 5, 7). It is, however, an inexpensive concentrated material and may be'of value under certain conditions (6, 10, 11). This investigation considers the effect of soil pH, rate of application, and crops, on the plant utilization of phosphorus and calcium from rock phosphate and superphosphate. Tracer techniques were extended to these studies by using neutron irradiated rock phosphate.
