Sulphur and its significance in higher pulse production

Sulphur is one of the emerging plant nutrients, required for pulse crops. After nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium, it forth key nutrient nutrition. It taken up by plants in form sulphates from soil. The factors that are responsible wide spread deficiency sulphur excess use high analysis fertilizers, inadequate crop residue, yielding varieties crops its removal plays a pivotal role overall production, synthesis containing amino acids, enhancing protein content, nodule formation biomass. However, requirement effective production not showing promising trend. Comparing sources gypsum showed superiority producing grain straw yield pulses. In some field experiments on pulses, addition @30kg 40kgof S/ha along with recommended dose, increased growth (plant height number branches) quality parameters (grain content). This review highlights different response to application, sources, uptake interactions other nutrients profitable production. Moreover, provides new insights revisit significance higher
