1. Comparison of Congranulated Fertilizer to Blends with S and Zn in Corn and Soybeans

High yielding corn and soybean production systems in Missouri have renewed an interest in micronutrient management such as sulfur (S) which is essential for protein formation and zinc. (Zn) which is important for enzymes and metabolic reactions. Yield increases due to sulfur applications are more likely to occur during cool, wet springs when mineralization and crop growth are slow as a result of a decrease in atmospheric sulfur deposition. Soil tests in 2010 indicated that over 60% of the samples... M. Caldwell, K. Nelson, B. Burdick
