Sulphur is a key component when growing high yielding, healthy crops. Whilst Nitrogen is a growth promoter, Sulphur works as a growth regulator, effectively balancing the manufacture of sugars and proteins in leaf tissue with the demand from these materials throughout the plant. Consequently, Sulphur plays a crucial role in maintaining green leaf area, growth rates and delaying senescence. Low ...

Under our feet, in the soil, is a wealth of microbial activity. Just like humans have different metabolisms and food choices, so do those microbes. In fact, microbes play an important role in making nutrients available to plants. A recent review paper from Xinda Lu and his team looks at different roles that various soil microbes have in soil’s nitrogen cycle. Lu is a researcher at ...

You may have heard how excess nutrients, such as phosphorus, can run off of crop fields. This can cause harm when the nutrients end up in rivers and lakes. However, there are other sources of excess nutrients you might not think of, such as the pots nursery plants come in. Before being shipped to farmers and garden centers, many tree crops and ornamental plants are grown in pots at nurseries. ...
As the world examines how agriculture is impacted by and also in turn impacts climate change, IFA will be leading an industry delegation to Madrid to underscore the vital role of fertilizers in producing around 50% of the world's food supply, and meeting the challenge of a 60% increase in productivity to feed a population of 9.8 billion people by 2050 on existing arable land, as ...
