Effect of Different Treatment of Sulfur Fertilizer on the Growth and Output of Corn

Abstract

This paper studied the effect of different amount of sulfur fertilizer on the growth and yield of corn. The result shows: applying sulfur fertilizer could promote the corn growth and increase its yield .The corn yield increases 13.92%～32.67%.
