摘要

Fluoride (F), an essential trace element with dual health implications, poses significant ecological risks when its biogeochemical cycle is disrupted in soil-crop systems. This study addresses the limitations of total soil F content in assessing crop F bioavailability through a systematic investigation of 30 paired agricultural soil-wheat samples from Zhouzhi County, Guanzhong Plain. Sequential extraction revealed residual F as the dominant speciation (79.5–99.04% of total F), significantly restricting its environmental mobility. While surface soils exhibited elevated total F (753.3 mg kg⁻1 mean), wheat grains maintained safe F levels (1.2 mg kg⁻1 mean). A robust multivariate model (R2 = 0.72) integrating water-soluble F, CaO, Mn, Alox-Feox complexes, P, and pH effectively predicted wheat F accumulation, with water-soluble F contributing the biggest to total variance. These findings could provide scientific support for green agricultural practices in F-affected regions.
