Abstract
Studies were conducted both in the laboratory and in the field to determine the relative availability of calcium from several calcium sulfate materials, and their effect on the yield and grade of peanuts . The initial rate of Ca leaching in the laboratory study was greatest for Phosphogypsum, medium for the regular finely-ground anhydrite land plaster and least for the granular anhydrite land plaster. With continued leaching the Ca level extracted after applying the three sources became similar . Some differences were noted in the rate of leaching that were associated with soil properties, primarily cation exchange capacity.
