Coordinated nitrogen and sulfur management in S-deficient soils
IPNI-2014-CAN-4RC06
Background Although there is approximately 4 million ha S-deficient soils in the cultivated areas of the Canadian prairie Provinces, an additional 8 million ha is estimated to be potentially deficient (Solberg et al. , 2007). Much of the research to date has focused on the effect of N fertilization on N20 emission and /or carbon sequestration. Read more
