The rapid growth in population and the widening food deficits inmany tropical countries ofAsia, Africa, and Latin America call attention to those aspects of fertilization that have been neglected but are expected to yield large economic payoffs in the future. Fertilizer sulfur falls into this category. In the past fertilizer sulfur received little attention from researchers and policymakers since sulfur deficiency was not considered a serious problem. It was not a problem because of low crop yields, extensive cropping, and the incidental supply of sulfur through rain, irrigation water, manures, and sulfurcontaining fertilizers. However, the situation has changed in the last three decades. Moder nagriculture based on high crop yields, intensive cropping, improved crop varieties, and greater use of sulfur-free fertilizers and environmental regula tions restricting sulfur emissions are creating large gaps between sulfur sup ply and sulfur requirements. Sulfur deficiencies are widespread and grow ing. Consequently, the full potential of a modern agricultural system in tropical countries is not being realiz | | 出版日期 | Book 1986 | | 关键词 | agriculture; development; emissions; environment; growth; population; production; research; water | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-94-017-1540-9 | | isbn_softcover | 978-90-247-3244-9 | | isbn_ebook | 978-94-017-1540-9 | | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 1986 |
