To ensure the sustainable use of phosphorus (P) fertilizers it is necessary to develop P management strategies that maximize crop yield while minimizing P leaching. Current P management practices, based on single agronomic soil P tests such as Olsen P (POLSEN ), do not consider the P sorption capacity allowing one to predict soil P dynamics in response to long-term P inputs and related impacts on crop yield, P uptake and P loss. The oxalate extraction method, measuring contents of P, aluminium (Al) and iron (Fe), has been identified as a high-potential agri-environmental P test as it measures the reversibly sorbed P pool. This test gives insights in the plant-available P pool, the P sorption capacity and the degree of P Saturation (PSD). In this study, we evaluated the performance of POLSEN and PSD in explaining crop yield and P leaching risks, using long-term field experiments from China (n = 1) and Europe (n = 11), and we applied these insights to an inventory dataset (grid-sampling based) of Qiyang county in China. The variations in crop yield and P leaching risk were better explained by PSD (R2 =0.5–0.95 for crop yield and 0.84–0.95 for P leaching risk) than by POLSEN (R2 =0.68–0.93 for crop yield and < 0.73 for P leaching risk). The PSD target level to achieve 90 % of the potential yield was higher than the critical level to avoid enhanced P leaching for the Chinese but not for the European experiments. When applied on regional scale, we showed that the use of POLSEN might underestimate P demand for crop production and overestimate the potential leaching risk. Considering the theoretical advantages of PSD as a combined agri-environmental soil P test, we discussed the implications of its use for regional P management and showed that the α value, which is used to estimate PSD from oxalate extractable Al and Fe, needs to be adjusted for regional pedogenic and related climate factors.
