Sumario:Under the hypothesis that the stratification of soil properties under directseeding conditions (SD) modifies P sorption parameters, the objectives of this work were: i) to estimate P sorption parameters by using Langmuir isotherms in samples of different depth, extracted from fields under continuous direct seeding; (ii) to analyze the similarities and differences between the parameters obtained; and (iii) to identify the relationship between the edaphic properties of the surface stratum and the estimated parameters. Soil samples of 0 to 5 and 0 to 20 cm were equilibrated with  solutions with increasing concentrations of P. From the relationship between the adsorbed P and the concentration of P in equilibrium, the maximum adsorption capacity (Qmax) and the retention affinity constant (k) were estimated. The higher Qmax and the low k of 0 to 5 cm samples show that there is a distinct behaviour in the first centimeters of depth. In that layer the bioavailability of P and the residuality of the applied fertilizers are regulated by adsorption phenomena responding to the  presence of organic colloids, which are accumulated by the stratification associated with SD.
