Phosphate  adsorption  from  soil   as    a   function  of  pH   and   temperature,  using electrolyte   and  ion exchange  resin methods, ha   been  studied.  The resin  method is  found to  be  the most suitable  method for the extraction of phosphate from the soil. Low pH   values and high temperature    was  observed  to enhance  the phosphate adsorption which  is  due  to  an increase  in  the solubility of calcium phosphate.
