Sulphur Bentonite

Sulphur Bentonite is one of the concentrated source of sulphur. Sulphur deficiency is predominant in Indian soils. Sulphur is involved in metabolic functions of plants and is a constituent of amino acids. It also helps in chlorophyll synthesis and improves efficiency of other nutrients. Sulphur is a key element in oilseed production. It leads to improvement in yield of crops and oil content. Sulphur bentonite contains 90 % S and 10 % Bentonite clay which serves as binder during manufacture and as a dispersing agent after addition to soils.
