SULFUR AGRONOMICS

Advances in agronomic technologies over the last several decades including fertilizer, improved crop production enormously. The fertilizer industry has focused on several criteria for enhanced fertilizers, and Degradable Sulfur meets these essential criteria:

  • High nutrient efficiency:
    • High analysis
    • Slow release
    • Fewer applications

  • Savings in time, labour and energy:
    • Lower volume for dealers
    • Fewer passes across fields for growers

  • Environmental Stewardship:
    • High percentage recovery of nutrient (to achieve high return on production input)
    • Minimum detrimental environment affects (low loss of nutrient to air and water)

Degradable Sulfur Pastille

Sulfur is often considered to be the fourth major nutrient behind N, P & K because it contributes so significantly to the yield and quality of crops. Sulfur improves soil conditions and the efficient metabolism of N, P, and K, and also acts as an essential component of synthesis and catalytic reactions within plants. Keg River Degradable Sulfurs are the best form of Sulfur fertilizer for plant nutrient sulfur deficiencies and soil amendment.

Degradable Sulfur products play an important role in nutrient management plans that help ensure efficient and responsible use of fertilizer. The new generation of Degradable Sulfurs contain enormous advances over products introduced 15 years ago. The improved handling and degradability characteristics now present the dealer with a cost efficient, high analysis alternative Sulfur source that easily fits into fertilizer programs.
