Reported Results:

Alfalfa consistently responded to Sulfur (s) fertilization applications in both 2001 and 2002. On marginal sites consistent responses up to 19 percent can be achieved with S fertilization. On highly deficient sites responses have been greater and have included increases in alfalfa forage quality as well as yield. All sources of S fertilizer appear to work equally well when applied in early spring to established stands of alfalfa.
