Evaluating sulphur sources in canola locations
Aims

To investigate the effectiveness of elemental sulphur in canola,

Key messages

This trial has not been able to add to our understanding as to how much sulphur can be applied as elemental sulphur as there was not a response to sulphur. So when working from a maintenance perspective there is no problem with 100% elemental sulphur in the form we have applied.
