“…Volk et al ( 20) reported that where concentrated superphosphate which contains approximately 1% sulfur was used, the addition of gypsum increased the yield 33%. Similar results were reported by Harris et al (9) for cotton grown on sandy soils in Florida. Tests with nitric phosphates on certain Alabama and Mississippi soils indicated that sulfur may be needed for optimum cotton yields ( 16).…”

“…COOPER and MITCHELL (5) found that cotton plants cultured under various conditions contained an average of 0.28% of sulphur and 0.24% of phosphorus on the dry weight basis. In a few instances (4,12,18), cotton has been shown to respond under field conditions to sulphur fertilization. The fact that ,attention to the sulphur relations in the nutrition of cotton has been somewhat limited finds one explanation in that sulphur is an ingredient in superphosphate as well as in some of the nitrogen and potash fertilizers.…”

“…Sulfur requirements for cotton range from 20 kg S ha -1 (18 lb ac -1 ) in Alabama (Mullins and Burmester 1993) to 41 kg S ha -1 (37 lb ac -1 ) in Australia (Rochester 2007). However, most S fertility research on cotton in the United States has been conducted on coastal plain soils of the southeastern United States (Harris et al 1945;Mascagni et al 1992;Mullins 1998). Several S fertility field studies high rainfall southeastern United States are more likely on sandy soils.…”
