Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Sulfur content in alfalfa was highest at a fertilized sulfur level of 80 mg/kg.
- Intervention effect Increasing the sulfur fertilizer rate decreased sulfur content in alfalfa.
- Intervention effect Sulfur at 40 mg/kg gave the maximum dry matter accumulation in alfalfa.
- Intervention effect Sulfur levels had no significant effect on chlorophyll content in alfalfa.
- Intervention effect Selenium dosage had no obvious effect on alfalfa dry matter.
- Intervention effect Chlorophyll content in alfalfa was maximal at a selenium content of 3.0 mg/kg.
- Intervention effect Selenium content in alfalfa was highest with S 20 mg/kg plus Se 1.5 mg/kg fertilization.
- Intervention effect Accumulation of selenium in alfalfa decreased as sulfur level increased.
- Intervention effect Dry matter accumulation in alfalfa was maximal with S 40 mg/kg plus Se 1.5 mg/kg.
- Recommendation The authors recommend S 40 mg/kg plus Se 1.5 mg/kg as the best fertilizing program for alfalfa.
