Nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) are critical components of a well-fertilized crop. But to achieve yields and more nutritious foods, crops need sulphur (S). This website is an introduction to sulphur and its important role in agriculture. Role of Sulphur in Plant Growth and Development. Sulphur is one of the 17 essential plant ...
Supplementing sulphur in agriculture is crucial to maintain optimal crop nutrition and maximize yields. Several sources of sulphur are used to address deficiencies, including elemental sulphur, sulphate fertilizers, gypsum, and organic amendments.
In this review, we have focused on sulfur nutrition, uptake, transport, and inter-organismic transfer to host plants. Given the strong potential for agricultural use of sulfur sources and their applications, we cover what is known about sulfur impact on the plant health.
