Purdue's Dan Quinn summarizes why nitrogen and sulfur are tightly linked in corn production, highlights key preliminary insights from recent research, and explains why understanding and managing the interaction between these two nutrients may be critical for optimizing nutrient management and yield potential moving forward.

Cereal rye establishes and grows very well across many conditions, but this also means it produces quite a bit of carbon, and also takes up quite a bit of nitrogen from the soil without releasing it timely, even when terminated multiple weeks before planting.

Field research trials are an important part of understanding how specific agronomic practices can improve farm productivity.
