Sulfur is an essential nutrient for plants, playing a crucial role in various physiological processes, including the formation of amino acids and proteins. It is a key component of some vitamins and enzymes and contributes to overall plant growth and development. While sulfur is naturally present in the soil, its availability can limit in certain regions or under specific soil conditions. Therefore, sulfur fertilizers are use to supplement the soil with this essential nutrient.
- Types of Sulfur Fertilizers:
- Granular Sulfur: This is a common form of sulfur fertilizer, consisting of small, solid particles that can spread over the soil surface.
- Lump Sulfur: This form consists of larger, irregularly shaped pieces of sulfur.
- Pastille Sulfur: Pastilles are small, spherical pellets of sulfur that can spread or incorporated into the soil.
- Liquid Sulfur: Sulfur can also apply in liquid form, either alone or as part of a sulfur-containing compound.
