| ABSTRACTThe aim of this study was to evaluate the response of the canola crop to nitrogen (N) sources and split application. The experiment was carried out in two agricultural years (2009 and 2010), at the experimental unit of the Pontifical Catholic University of Paraná - PUCPR, Campus of Toledo. A completely randomized design in 5 x 2 factorial scheme was adopted in the experiment. The treatments consisted of five split applications of N at sowing and/or as top dressing (0 and 0, 120 and 0, 0 and 120, 40 and 80, 80 and 40 kg of N ha-1) and two N sources (ammonium sulfate and urea), with four replicates. The canola genotype Hyola 61 was used in the experiment, which was evaluated for plant height, number of plants m-2, shoot dry matter, leaf area, mass of... |
