Yes, some fertilizers have phosphates in them.
Most phosphates are soluble. There are some such as AlPO4 which are not.
No, phosphates are acidic, they for phosphoric acid with is a fairly reactive acid.
Simply because phosphates are harmful to the environment. Due to advances in science, and experimentation, there are safer alternatives to using phosphates.
ATP = Adenosine Tri Phosphate , which means 3 Phosphates.
Naturally occurring phosphates from runoff from granitic rocks.
Examples: sodium chloride, potassium chloride, sodium phosphates, sodium nitrate etc.
After water evaporation minerals called evaporites remain as residues: chlorides, carbonates, phosphates, etc.
Since the trees are being removed, the level of decomposing plant matter will decrease, causing the level of phosphates in the soil to decrease as well. Eventually, the cycle will continue and the rocks in that area will have smaller amounts of phosphates.
The are calcium and sodium phosphates.

Sodium phosphates are: Na3PO4, Na2HPO4, NaH2PO4 with the corresponding hydrates..
ATP = Adenosine Tri Phosphate , which means 3 Phosphates.
Phosphates are returned to the water when plants and animals die.
