520 8 _aPhosphorus is essential to all life. A critical component of fertilizers, phosphorus currently has no known substitute in agriculture. Without it, crops cannot grow. With too much of it, waterways are polluted. Across the globe, social, political, and economic pressures are influencing the biogeochemical cycle of phosphorus. A better understanding of this non-renewable resource and its impacts on the environment is critical to conserving our global supply and increasing agricultural productivity. This book builds a cohesive knowledge base of phosphorus sustainability.
