Abstract
An equation is proposed that describes the dissolution rate in soil of phosphate rock particles with a wide range of sizes, such as found in fertilizers for direct application. Information needed is the mean di ssolution rate constant for the soil, and the dry sieve analysis of th e phosphate rock.
