Sulphur Bentonite Granule

It is used as a secondary nutrient and also to correct alkaline soil problems.
Sulphur is one of the 17 essential plant nutrients and it helps in the formation of essential enzymes and plant proteins.
It is essential for the growth and development of all crops, without exception.

Formation of chlorophyll that permits photosynthesis through which plants produce starch, sugars, oils, fats, vitamins and other compounds.
Protein production. Sulphur is a constituent of three S-containing amino acids (cysteine, cystine and methionine), which are the building blocks of protein. About 90% of plant S is present in these amino acids.
Synthesis of oils. This is why adequate sulphur is so crucial for oilseeds.
Activation of enzymes, which aid in biochemical reactions in the plant.
Increases crop yields and improves produce quality, both of which determine the market price a farmer would get for his produce.
With reference to crop quality, S improves protein and oil percentage in seeds, cereal quality for milling and baking, marketability of dry coconut kernel (copra), quality of tobacco, nutritive value of forages, etc.
It is associated with special metabolisms in plant and the structural characteristics of protoplasm.

Sulphur deficiency symptoms resemble nitrogen deficiency: the leaves become pale-yellow or light green. Unlike nitrogen, sulphur-deficiency symptoms appear first on the younger leaves, and persist even after nitrogen application

Sulphur Bentonite should be applied directly to the soil at the time of sowing or in standing crops.
For oilseed and pulse crops in dosages of 15 KG/acre should be applied and 10kg/acre should be used for Cereal crops, whereas, for fruits and vegetables crops 10-12kg/acre is the recommended amount of dosage.
