Plant And Soil Health Webinar Sulphur S Role In Soybean Production Wesley haun with h.j. baker explains the importance of sulphur in soybean production. Sulfur is a secondary nutrient for soybeans. it is involved in metabolic functions for the plant, including seed formation and photosynthesis. deficiencies of sulfur in soybeans can lead to decreased yield and decreased protein content. two ways to diagnose a deficiency is to perform a plant tissue analysis or to do a soil test.
Illinois Soybean Association Webinar Sulphur S Roll In Soybean Sulfur (s) might be considered a secondary nutrient, but it is essential for crop production. dr. dan kaiser, extension nutrient management specialist, and jeff vetsch, soil scientist at the southern research and outreach center, joined extension educator ryan miller for a wide ranging discussion on new findings in sulfur fertility in the january 26 session of the webinar series, strategic. For medium to fine textured soils, 10 to 15 lbs s per acre broadcast is the suggested rate. 1,3 soybeans generally require less sulfur than corn; however, soybean response to s application has been recently observed. 6 the university of minnesota suggests that 10 to 15 lbs s broadcast per acre should be adequate for soybeans in at risk fields. 7 there are several fertilizer options that can be. Grain yield response to s fertilizer products had no significant correlation with potentially plant available s (28 d incubation of 0 to 15 cm soil depth from no s control sampled pre plant) for 2017 and 2018 new corn sites (p = .32), 2018 residual corn sites (p = .52), and 2018 and new soybean sites (p = .94) (supplemental figure s5). Abstract. a review of the role of sulfur (s) in crop production is presented, with a particular emphasis on major crops including corn (zea mays l.), rice (oryza sativa l.), and wheat (triticum aestivum l.). specifically, s demand and availability, nutritive effects in improving yield, its effect on quality in major crops, different diagnostic.
