Phosphorus budget and P stocks

Collection: ESDAC : European Soil Data Centre 

Description

We estimate the Phosphorus (P) budget from agriculural lands of EU and UK (c.a 173 million ha). This takes into account the P inputs (fertilizers, manure, chemical weathering, atmospheric deposition) and the P outputs (crop production, plant residues removal, losses by erosion) for the period 2011–2019. The P budget and the P inputs/ouptus are available at NUTS2 (Regional scale) and country scale. In addition, we estimate the P displacement and losses due to water erosion at catchment scale and aggregate them at sea outlet.
