Abstract

McLean's technique of extraction of soil phosphate by digestion of soil with concentrated sulphuric and nitric acids has been adapted to a colorimetric method of determining soil phosphate by use of metol. The complete technique is performed with use of glassware alone and is simple and accurate.
