Abstract
The effects of pelleted urea, an aqueous urea solution, ammonium sulphate, a lime/ammonium nitrate mix and potassium nitrate on grain yield in winter-sown 'Rongotea' wheat were assessed in 13 field experiments conducted in three cropping seasons. The nitrogen fertilisers were applied in early spring to the tillering wheat at rates which supplied 35, 70, 105 and 140 kg N/ha. Grain yield responses to applied nitrogen were markedly affected by spring-summer rainfall and varied widely among cropping years and sites. Differences among nitrogen fertilisers were generally small and not significant, apart from an inferiority of the urea solution. Additional Keywords: urea, ammonium sulphate, ammonium nitrate, potassium nitrate, spring-summer rairifa/1, 'plant-available' nitrogen, shallow and deep soils.
