- Intervention effect Sulfur application in onion up to 30 kg ha−1 increased fresh and dry bulb and foliage yield over 0 and 15 kg ha−1 in a two-year field study.
- Intervention effect The residual effect of sulfur applied to onion increased maize yield over 0 and 15 kg ha−1.
- Intervention effect The combined direct and residual effects of sulfur applied to onion increased the onion–maize sequence yield over 0 and 15 kg ha−1.
- Intervention effect Sulfur additions beyond 30 kg ha−1 reduced onion yields to the level of 15 kg ha−1 or even the control.
- Intervention effect Sulfur additions beyond 30 kg ha−1 reduced maize yields to the level of 15 kg ha−1 or even the control.
- Intervention effect Sulfur additions beyond 30 kg ha−1 reduced onion + maize sequence yields to the level of 15 kg ha−1 or even the control.
- Observation Sulfur-use efficiency of onion at 15, 30 and 45 kg ha−1 over no S was 373, 303 and 109 kg yield kg−1 S.
- Observation Sulfur-use efficiency of the onion + maize sequence at 15, 30 and 45 kg ha−1 over no S was 413, 367 and 111 kg yield kg−1 S.
- Observation Onion utilised 21.3, 16.7 and 9.1% of the sulfur added at three rates.
- Observation Maize utilised 2.0, 10.7 and –0.4% of the sulfur added at three rates.
- Observation The onion + maize sequence utilised 23.3, 27.3 and 8.4% of the sulfur added at three rates.
