How much sulphur?

The need for sulphur has always been difficult to identify in the field. Yet leaving a deficiency uncorrected could cost you up to £40/ha in lost yield. Yara have developed a range of “Quality Guaranteed” fertilizers to supply the correct amount of sulphur and this section includes details of Yaras approach to sulphur on a variety of crops.
