Spring nitrogen (N) and sulfur (S) applications to wheat in Virginia are imperative for high yielding systems. Questions often arise regarding the last Spring N and S application split (GS30) as temperatures rise and chances for wheat injury increase. Especially for S containing fertilizers, chances of foliar injury or “burn” may also increase. Does this foliar injury decrease yields? What management practice should a farmer utilize to reduce risks?
