Phosphorus (P) is a critical nutrient for soybean (Glycine max L.) growth, but its availability in soil is significantly influenced by soil pH. This study investigates the relationship between soil pH and phosphorus availability and its subsequent effects on soybean growth and yield. Field experiments were conducted in Bangladesh under varying soil pH conditions, with phosphorus application rates held constant. Results indicate that phosphorus availability peaks at a near-neutral pH, positively correlating with plant growth and seed yield. This research highlights the importance of soil pH management in optimizing phosphorus utilization for sustainable soybean production.
