Phosphorus is a critical resource for agriculture, but standard soil tests often fail to measure the dynamic rate at which it becomes available to crops, often leading farmers to overuse fertilizer and increase pollution risks. While the advanced diffusive gradients in thin films technology is excellent at measuring this dynamic phosphorus supply in soil, it is expensive and labor-intensive. We set out to discover if a combination of common, low-cost analyses could predict how much phosphorus plants absorb just as effectively as the advanced technology. Our research confirmed that the advanced dynamic phosphorus measurement was the single best predictor of plant phosphorus uptake. However, our key finding was that combining three simple measurements: extractable phosphorus, extractable aluminum, and soil organic carbon, predicted plant uptake and crop yield with equal or slightly better accuracy. This proves that agricultural stakeholders can use these existing, affordable labor

This article explains why and how the EU substantially increased the ambition and stringency of its Land Use, Land-Use Change and Forestry (LULUCF) regulation between 2018 and 2023. We show that the revised regulation transformed LULUCF from a separate accounting framework based on the no-debit rule into a core pillar of EU climate policy, with a binding EU-wide target of 310 Mt CO2e net removals by 2030, national targets and stronger compliance rules. Drawing on interviews, policy documents and legal texts, we argue that the European Commission acted as a climate policy entrepreneur, using technical expertise, impact assessments and agenda-setting authority to define feasible ambition and shape negotiations. However, forest-rich member states secured important adjustments to national targets, compliance rules, and flexibility arrangements. The findings highlight how issue complexity can expand Commission influence, while exposing implementation challenges linked to declining forest sinks and policy trade-offs.
