The invention provides pH-sensitive coated slow-release phosphate fertilizer and a preparation method thereof. The pH-sensitive coated slow-release phosphate fertilizer is prepared by uniformly spraying a coating layer having pH sensibility on surfaces of phosphate fertilizer-phosphate solubilizing microbial inoculum mixture particles. Crops lack of phosphor secretes a large amount of organic acid so that a pH value around the roots is reduced, and aiming at solving the above mechanism, the pH-sensitive coated slow-release phosphate fertilizer can greatly swell according to pH value decreasing so that a large amount of phosphor is released. The pH-sensitive coated slow-release phosphate fertilizer can control release of phosphor according to different phosphor requirement amounts of crops in different growth stages, can timely supply an appropriate amount of phosphor for plants and solves the problem of mismatching of a fertilizer release amount of the existing slow-release fertilizer and crop growth requirements in different stages.
