Abstract:

In recent years, fertilizers containing rare earth elements (REEs) have been used widely in agriculture (1, 2) and it may result in a potential increase in the contents of REEs in soil and cause environmental pollution. Therefore it is very important to obtain more knowledge of environmental effects of REEs in order to predict any possible deleterious effect occasioned by their use.
