1. Environmental Sulfur Sources as Inputs for Predicting Sulfur NeedsCrop responses to sulfur fertilization have been damstrated in mt states in the midwest, but the frequency of these responses is relatively lm. Sulfur deficiencies are usually confined to areas where one or mre of the follcrwing conditions exist: (1) Sandy or shallow soils; (2) Low soil organic matter content; (3) No recent manure applications; (4) Low atmospheric sulfur deposition; (5) High crop sulfur requirement. Although diagnostic tests to predict crop response to applied sulfur are an cbvious... |
2. Soybean Response to Potassium Fertility and Fertilizer in ManitobaSoybean acres have increased greatly in Manitoba in recent years, now occupying more than 25% of the province’s annual crop land. Potassium removal by soybean is greater than any other crop grown in Manitoba (1.1 – 1.4 lb K2O/bu). This large removal, accompanied by the large and rapid expansion in soybean acres, has contributed to an increase in province-wide potassium removal rates and likely explains the increase in incidence of potassium deficiency symptoms reported in recent years....
