Abstract
Abstract The effect of two nitrogen fertilizers applied at preplanting, three weeks after sowing (0.5 %), 6 weeks after sowing (1 %) and as a split application were tested on the emergence and growth of tobacco seedlings. Seedling emergence showed no response to fertilizer applications. The seedling growth was superior when ammonium sulphate was applied at preplanting, when compared to urea. The better growth of tobacco seedlings with a basal application of ammonium sulphate is attributed to the lower concentration of nitrogen which is at a non‐toxic level, and the presence of sulphur in this fertilizer.

Claim · model-written summary
The authors attributed improved tobacco seedling growth under basal ammonium sulphate to its lower non-toxic nitrogen concentration and sulfur content.
