Multi-seasonal estimation of nitrogen, sulphur & nitrogen: Sulphur ratio in sub-alpine pasture grasses of Kashmir valley

Humaira Ashraf, HA Ahmed, AM Ganai, ZA Pampori, HM Khan and I Hussain

The performance of plants can be maximized by N application only if S is adequate and, similarly, maximum response from S application will occur only if N is sufficient. In this study, the major plant species present in the pastures were collected; two pastures, Anderwan and Shuhama Pastures, during two seasons i.e., spring and autumn for their identification; in spring season 31 and in autumn season 32 palatable plant species were collected from both pastures respectively. The detailed Nitrogen, Sulphur content and N: S ratio of browse and grass species at Shuhama and Goabal (Anderwan) pastures during spring and autumn season were calculated. The mean of Nitrogen and Sulphur contents during the spring season in both pastures were more when compared to the mean of Nitrogen and Sulphur contents during autumn season.
