A study was carried out to determine response of the sulphur form and levels suitable for 'Sazak 91' lentil (Lens culinaris Medik), under eastern Turkey conditions during 2003-04 and 2004-05 to determine grain yield and some yield components. The applications of 2 different sulphur forms (elemental sulphur and pyrite) and 4 different elemental sulphur levels (0, 40, 80 and 120 S kg/ha) plant height, numbers of branches, pods/plant and seed/plant, 1 000-seedweight, harvest index, biological yield, seed yield/area, uptake of N, P, Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn, Zn and Cu in straw and grain were investigated. It was found that sulphur forms and levels affected grain yield and some yield components significantly. The highest grain yield (1 488 kg/ha) was found in 120 kg/ha sulphur application. The lowest grain yield was found in the control plots as 1 031 kg/ha. The uptake of N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn, Zn and Cu of straw and grain of lentil were significantly affected with increasing elemental S level application in both years except for P uptake by straw of lentil in first year 2003, and Zn and Cu uptake by straw of lentil in the second year 2004.
