Abstract :In this study phosphate adsorption capacities of the soils from S.Ü. Agricultural Farm were investigated. Twentysix representative soil sample was taken from 13 different points of the Farm at 0-30 and 30-60 cm depth of the soil profile.The average phosphorous adsorption capacities of the soils was found as 62% of soil applied phosphorous. Correiation coefficients between adsorbed - P percantages and some soil properties were found statistically significant. For example, soil clay content, pH and calcium carbonate were positively correlated with adsorbed P for some phosphorous added levels, whereas statistically significant negative correlation was found between organic matter content and adsorbed - P.
