Researchers funded by AHDB and led by ADAS are examining whether UK farmers can use less phosphate fertiliser while keeping yields. About 80% of UK arable land is at soil P index 2 or above, and surplus phosphorus is linked to water pollution.
Soils must fall below index 2 to meet Water Framework Directive targets.
If UK growers adopt more efficient phosphate strategies, fertilizer demand could ease over time. The effect on prices is likely small and gradual.
