Nitrogen and sulfur: In-season application, nutrient interactions, precision tech & more

Abstract

In this episode of the Nutrient Management Podcast, we're talking about nitrogen and sulfur application. What does current nitrogen and sulfur research mean for Minnesota growers? What do we know about the relationship between N and S in crops? What -if any- considerations should farmers make when applying S? Do N application rates need to be changed? With an earlier planting window this year will there be any issues related to N and S growers should be concerned about? Additional resources: Is it worth applying sulfur to your soybean crop?
