The effcacy of nitrification inhibitors depends on soil properties and environmental conditions.The nitrification inhibitor 3,4-dimethylpyrazole phosphate(DMPP) was investigated in a sandy loam and a loamy soil to study its effec-tiveness as inffuenced by inhibitor concentration,application form,and soil matric potential.DMPP was applied with concentrations up to 34.6 mg DMPP kg-1 soil as solution or as ammonium-sulfate/ammonium-nitrate granules formulated with DMPP.DMPP inhibited the oxidation of ammonium in both soils,but this effect was more pronounced in the sandy loam than in the loamy soil.When applied as solution,increasing DMPP concentrations up to 7 mg DMPP kg-1 soil had no inffuence on the inhibition.The effectiveness of DMPP formulated as fertilizer granules was superior to the liquid application of DMPP and NH4+,particularly in the loamy soil.Without DMPP,a decline in soil matric potential down to -600 kPa decreased nitrification in both soils,but this effect was more pronounced in the sandy loam than in the loamy soil.DMPP was most effective in the sandy loam particularly under conditions of higher soil moisture,i.e.,under conditions favorable for nitrate leaching.

DMPP formulated as fertilizer granules was superior to the liquid application of DMPP and NH4 +, particularly in the loamy soil. Based on DMPP, a decline in soil matric potential down to -600 kPa less nitrification in both soils, but this effect was more prono unced in the sandy loam than in the loamy soil. DMPP was most effective in the sandy loam particularly under conditions of higher soil moisture, ie, under conditions favorable for nitrate leaching.
