Nano-sulfur what is it ?
Nano-sulfur particles are 10000 times smaller (20nm) than traditional micronized sulfur. When applied to the soil before sowing or during irrigation, they penetrate plant cells and eliminate fungi. They regulate soil pH in 3 to 4 weeks, compared with 4 to 6 months for conventional sulfur.
Effects and benefits of nano-sulfur
- Accelerates photosynthesis by 8-10 times, increasing initial plant growth rate.
- Increases protein quantity and quality in wheat and beans, by accelerating nodule formation.
- Increases oil content in oilseed plants.
- Converts nitrates into protein nitrogen.
- Protects plants against fungi.
- Promotes plant growth and improves yields.
- Extends fruit and vegetable shelf life.
- Regulates soil pH.
- Removes heavy metals from the soil.
Purpose and impact of nano-sulfur
- A pH-balanced soil promotes better microflora, higher productivity and superior crop quality.
- Sulfur is considered the 4th most important macro-nutrient after nitrogen, phosphorus and calcium. Sulfur deficiency turns leaves yellow and reduces photosynthesis by up to 40%, leading to a loss of protein and an increase in nitrates.
- Sulfur plays a key role in the synthesis of amino acids, DNA and RNA.
- Nano-sulfur is 20 to 30 times more effective than conventional types.
- It's an economical, high-performance solution.
How to use nano-sulfur
| Name | When | Quantity required |
