Abstract:
Availability of both native and applied nutrients is one of the major constrains for plants growth in sandy calcareous soils. Elementalsulfur (S0) is often applied to acidify calcareous soil which increases the availability of nutrients in soils. The present study was sought toexamine the effect of S0 combined with or without N under acidified (pH 6.5) and normal (pH >7.5) irrigation water on growth, apparentN-use efficiency (NUE) and uptake availability of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), sulfur (S), iron (Fe), zinc (Zn) and manganese (Mn) by
