ABSTRACT: A field experiment was carried out on winter season 2012/ 2013 with wheat (Bani swif 1) grown on a clayey soil at Sids Agric. Res. Station to study the effect of sulphur (S) application and micronutrients (Mi) i.e. Fe, Zn, Mn and Cu on some properties of soil and available macronutrients in soil as well as the grain and straw yields of wheat and they chemical composition. Sulphur was added at rates of 0, 250, 500 and 1000 kg /fed alone or with afore named micronutrients which sprayed at the rate of 0.1 % Fe in the form of chelated (6%), 0.05 % Zn in the form of chelated (14 %), 0.05 % Mn in the form of chelated (13 %) and CuSO4 at rate of 1 g / L. The experiment was conducted in a randomized complete block design with 4 replicates. | ||||
