We have already seen in our previous article on sulphur that it is an essential element for plants, as it serves as a system of defence and detoxification. It also serves to improve the quality of the soil and to strengthen the roots of the crops.
Its main advantages are:
- Synthesis of amino acids
- Cysteine
- Cystine
- Methionine
- It is involved in the formation of chlorophyll and synthesis of vitamins, mainly vitamin B1.
- Formation of glycosides, ferredoxins, and participation in the activity of ATP sulphurylase.
- It improves soil properties, increasing the fertility of its essential nutrients.
- It promotes fruiting and ear formation in cereals.
- It produces high-quality seeds, increasing oil production in rapeseed.
- It is necessary for the transformation of organic matter into humus.
- It is highly recommended for wet environments.
- Soil Conditioner.
- Improves the microbial activity of the soil.
- Nutritional function.
- Biostimulant function.
- Anti-powdery mildew effect.
- Acaricidal effect.
BENEFITS OF SULPHUR IN TOP DRESSING FERTILISATION
Now, we want to tell you about the benefits that sulphur has in top-dressing fertilization. They are as follows:
- It improves soil quality: Sulphur added to the top dressing fertilization, improves soil quality by hindering erosion and reducing acidity.
This promotes healthy and robust plant growth. - It strengthens the root system: Sulphur helps strengthen the plant root system by increasing nutrient absorption.
This increases resistance to pests, diseases and difficult climatic conditions. - It provides sulphide to the soil: Sulphur helps provide sulphide to the soil, which helps protect the soil from disease and improve the amount of useful microbes present.
- It improves resistance to climatic conditions: Sulphur helps protect plants from the effects of drought, cold and excess water.
This is especially useful for farmers when faced with periods of drought. - It favours crop productivity: Sulphur in the top dressing improves yields and overall crop health, which translates into higher production.
This is especially beneficial for farmers.
