Sulfur, Finally Getting Some Respect!
October 19, 2011
Written By: Craig Dick

It's good to see that the rest of the world is catching on to the benefits of sulfur! I had dealer tell me that in 1996 a trade publication (no longer in print) had a cover story titled "Sulfur Arrives as the 4th Major Nutrient". Well they were only off 15 years, but finally sulfur is getting the respect of researchers, farmers and is getting some press.

Check out these two great article from Corn and Soybean Digest

SuperCal SO4 is the gypsum referred to in the first article and the trial data can be found here.

We've been showing a need sulfur for it in Iowa since 2004 and on Alfalfa since 1998! Glad everyone else is figuring it out too!
