Can Micronized Sulfur in Urea Reduce Ammoniacal Nitrogen Volatilization and Improve Maize Grain Yield?

Micronized sulfur (S) in urea may reduce nitrogen (N) loss by ammoniacal N (NH 3 –N) volatilization and provide a better use for S from oil refineries, thereby improving plant nutrition by providing N and S. The objective of this study was to evaluate the use of urea micronized with S (urea+S) to mi...
