Response of Dwarf Cavendish banana (Musa spp.) to potassium sulfate (K2SO4) fertilization was tested for two seasons (199798 and 199899) in banana orchard on the eastern bank of the Blue Nile in Sennar area (13˚ 37′N,-33˚ 37′ E). This area assumes the greatest potential for banana production and known to be deficient in soil potassium. Treatments include six levels of potassium sulfate 0, 200, 400, 600, 800 and 1000 g/mat/year applied in two equal doses. Results indicated that the yield of the crop and the first ratoon can be fitted into a cubic regression model with a local maximum at the 400 g level. Nevertheless, economically, the 200 g level was proved more profitable than the 400 g one and hence it is requested for recommendation for banana fertilization in Sennar area
