Determination Of Amount Of Phosphate And Sulphate In Soil Samples From University Of Cape Coast Farm.

Abstract The soil test analysis conducted by research on variety of crop growing soil gave values of 12- 20ppm of Phosphate which is regarded to be adequate for plant establishment and production. In the case of Sulphate the experimental results obtained were as follows virgin land 14.8ppm tomato land 20.9ppm cassava land 43.3ppm. Soil test analysis gave standard sulphate values required for growth to be between 15 40ppm. This is the concentration of sulphate express in ppm which is sufficient for plant growth.
