Effects of nitrogen and sulphur on seedling establishment, vegetative growth and nitrogen use efficiency of canola (Brassica napus L.) grown in the Western Cape Province of South Africa

Variability in soil properties and rainfall distribution is generally high in canola growing areas of Western Cape Province of South Africa. Rainfall intensity generally influences soil moisture levels and utilization of major nutrients like nitrogen (N) and sulphur (S) required to maximize canola growth and development. Hence this research was intended to determine effect of soil and climatic differences, as...
