For various reasons, iron phosphate might be effective in correcting Fe chlorosis in calcareous soils. To test this hypothesis, several pot experiments were conducted using an Fe chlorosis-sensitive chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) cultivar cropped in soils to which partially oxidized vivianites (Fe3(PO4)2.8H2O) and Fe(III) phosphates with different characteristics had been added. Vivianites mixed with the soil at a rate of 1 g kg-1 were as effective in preventing chlorosis as Fe chelate (FeEDDHA). However, the effectiveness of Fe(III) phosphates was less, suggesting that the presence of Fe(II) in the phosphates used was a key factor in their Fe-supplying value to plants. The effectiveness of vivianites, however, seemed to be largely independent of their Fe(II) content.The future of vivianite as a Fe amendment will depend not only on economic considerations (production and application costs) but also on its long-term capacity to release plant-available Fe in soil environments.
