A five-year study of the response of irrigated grain sorghum to various rates of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, iron and sulfur was begun in 1967 on a Sherm silty clay loam soil , Grain yields were increased by nitrogen ( N ) rates up to 160 pounds per acre while nitrogen rates above 160 pounds per acre did not increase yield. At the 160 N rate, 80 pounds per acre of either broadcast or banded phosphorus (P2 O5) increased yield. Greater phosphorus response resulted from band application......
