Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect Higher N rate increased maize grain yield.
- Intervention effect Increasing applied S doses increased leaf S content.
- Intervention effect Ammonium sulfate produced higher yields than prilled urea on Haplic Lixisol.
- Intervention effect Ammonium sulfate produced higher yields than pastille urea on Haplic Lixisol.
- Intervention effect Ammonium sulfate produced higher yields than pastille urea with elemental S on Haplic Lixisol.
- Observation The N rate for maximum economic efficiency of UR was 128 kg N ha-1 on Haplic Acrisol.
- Observation The N rate for maximum economic efficiency of UR was 119 kg N ha-1 on Haplic Lixisol.
- Recommendation The authors recommend 119 kg ha-1 ammonium sulfate because it gave greater income at both sites.
