Recent high fertilizer prices have prompted huge farmer interest in the possibility of lowering nitrogen (N) rates with commercial microbial supplements that claim to fix N from the atmosphere.

Sulfur (S) deficiency is becoming more common in Indiana crops because, in part, S deposition from coal-fired power plants has been reduced.
Seed corn represents one of the most expensive variable input costs for Indiana corn growers (Langemeier et al., 2021) and so choosing the most economical seeding rate is important for maximizing dollar return to seed at harvest time.
This presentation shares what we know and don’t know about corn response to applied sulfur fertilizer in Indiana, based on field scale research we conducted throughout the state from 2017 – 2021.

With fertilizer being scarce and/or expensive there has never been a better time to fine-tune fertilizer use.
