Type: Increasing use of liquid sulfur fertilizers by using fertigation systems or foliar sprays
Elemental sulfur is a common form of sulfur fertilizer applied to soil as a direct source of sulfur for plant nutrition. It is available in solid granular or powdered form and requires oxidation by soil microbes to convert into sulfate for plants to uptake. The oxidation rate depends on the soil's pH, temperature, moisture content, and microbial activity. This type of sulfur fertilizer is preferred in alkaline soils with high pH levels since its oxidation process lowers the soil pH and aids in the availability of other nutrients, such as phosphorus. Liquid sulfur fertilizers consist mainly of ammonium thiosulfate (ATS) or potassium thiosulfate (KTS), and they offer rapid conversion to plant-available sulfate ions upon application due to their solubility in water. They can be mixed with other liquid fertilizers such as nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), or potassium (K) products for simultaneous nutrient delivery to crops. Liquid sulfur fertilizers are preferred for their ease of handling and application, particularly in fertigation systems or foliar sprays. Sulfate fertilizers contain sulfur in the form of sulfate ions that plants can readily uptake. These products are derived from various sources such as ammonium sulfate, potassium sulfate, calcium sulfate, or magnesium sulfate, and their solubility in water and direct plant availability makes them suitable for immediate crop nutrition requirements.
Formulation: Adoption of dry-formulated sulfur fertilizers to provide stable and slow-release sulfur supply to crops
Dry formulation sulfur fertilizers are available in several forms, including granular, prilled, and powdered products. These formulations are preferred by farmers who require a more stable and slow-release supply of sulfur to their crops. The gradual release of nutrients helps maintain consistent soil fertility throughout the growing season. Some common dry-formulated sulfur fertilizers include ammonium sulfate, elemental sulfur, gypsum, and potassium sulfate. Liquid formulation sulfur fertilizers have gained immense popularity due to ease of application and rapid availability for plant uptake. This type of fertilizer is typically applied using fertigation or foliar spraying techniques, which allow for precise nutrient delivery directly to the root zone or plant foliage. Common liquid-formulated sulfur products include ammonium thiosulfate (ATS), potassium thiosulfate (KTS), and magnesium thiosulfate (MgTS).
Crop: Extensive use of sulfur fertilizers to supply balanced plant nutrition for fruits and vegetables
Sulfur fertilizers are essential for the optimal growth and yield of cereals and grains, as sulfur plays a critical role in synthesizing essential amino acids and proteins. For fruits and vegetables, sulfur is crucial for enhancing flavor, color, and shelf life and providing resistance against pests and diseases. Sulfur fertilizers are typically preferred because they provide additional nutrients such as calcium, magnesium, or potassium alongside sulfur, contributing to balanced plant nutrition for fruits and vegetables. Oilseeds and pulses require sufficient amounts of sulfur for optimal oil content production and higher protein levels in seeds. Some commonly used sulfur fertilizers include ammonium thiosulfate (ATS), gypsum, and granular elemental sulfur. Each crop requires different types of sulfur fertilizers to maximize productivity and efficiency. Cereals and grains prefer nitrogen-rich ammonium sulfate or slow-release elemental sulfur products, fruits and vegetables benefit from multi-nutrient fertilizers, and oilseeds and pulses prioritize improving nutrient absorption by using products that ensure the effective release of sulfur in the soil.
Application Method: Usage of foliar application for rapid absorption of sulfur fertilizers
Band application involves placing sulfur fertilizer in concentrated bands beside or below the seed row during planting. This method is preferred for crops with high sulfur requirements, such as canola and alfalfa. Band application ensures efficient nutrient uptake by concentrating the fertilizer close to the roots, minimizing losses due to leaching or volatilization. The broadcasting method encompasses uniformly spreading sulfur fertilizer over the soil surface before planting or during a growing season. This method is suitable for crops with lower sulfur requirements or where large areas need coverage at a low cost. Fertigation involves combining sulfur fertilizers with irrigation water for simultaneous application through drip or sprinkler systems. This method allows precise control over nutrient distribution while reducing labor costs associated with traditional applications. Foliar application is spraying sulfur fertilizers directly onto plant leaves, allowing rapid absorption and immediate availability to the plant. This method is ideal for correcting sulfur deficiencies during critical growth stages or boosting nutrient levels in crops with low soil sulfur availability. Injection involves placing liquid or anhydrous ammonia-based sulfur fertilizers below the soil surface using specialized equipment. This method minimizes losses due to runoff or volatilization and provides quick access to nutrients for crop roots. The injection is particularly beneficial for high-residue cropping systems such as no-till practices. Seed placement involves incorporating granular or liquid sulfur fertilizers directly into the seed furrow during planting, resulting in close contact between seeds and nutrients for rapid uptake during germination. Sidedressing refers to applying additional sulfur fertilizer alongside growing plants, while topdressing involves broadcasting granular or liquid fertilizer on top of the soil around established plants during a growing season. Both methods deliver nutrients when most needed by crops, reducing nutrient losses due to leaching or volatilization compared to pre-plant applications.
