Acid salt used in fertiliser (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

phosphate

(Other definitions for phosphate that I've seen before include "Hope paths lead to artificial fertiliser" , "Salt used in fertilizers" , "Acid salt used, eg, as a fertiliser" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
