Abstract
THE availability to plants of molybdate in some acidic soils may be increased by raising the pH. This behaviour of molybdate is analogous to that of phosphate, and suggests a study of its compounds with iron and aluminium, which are presumably responsible for holding molybdate in an insoluble form.
