Soil Amendment Sulphur

Brimstone 90™ – The Soil Amendment Solution for Sustainable Agriculture

Brimstone 90™ is a high-purity elemental sulphur product that can help to enhance soil health, correct pH imbalances, and optimise nutrient availability. By providing a slow-release source of sulphur, Brimstone 90™ supports sustainable soil management, improving crop productivity and long-term agricultural sustainability.

Key Benefits of Brimstone 90™ as a Soil Amendment

• pH Reduction: Elemental sulphur effectively lowers soil pH, making it an ideal amendment for alkaline soils. This ensures better nutrient availability, particularly for essential micronutrients like iron, zinc, and phosphorus.

• Slow-Release Sulphur: Unlike sulphate-based fertilisers that can leach quickly, Brimstone 90™ provides a gradual, season-long sulphur supply as soil microbes convert it into plant-available sulphate.

• Enhanced Microbial Activity: Sulphur oxidation promotes beneficial microbial activity, fostering a healthier soil ecosystem and improving overall soil fertility.

• Improved Nutrient Uptake: By balancing soil chemistry, Brimstone 90™ enhances the efficiency of nitrogen and phosphorus uptake, contributing to stronger plant growth and improved crop yield.

• Long-Lasting Soil Health: The durable nature of elemental sulphur provides extended soil benefits, reducing the need for frequent reapplication and promoting sustainable farming practices.

Application Recommendations

Brimstone 90™ can be incorporated into various soil types and cropping systems to address sulphur deficiencies and soil alkalinity issues.

• Alkaline Soil Treatment: Applied at recommended rates, Brimstone 90™ gradually lowers soil pH, ensuring optimal nutrient availability for crops sensitive to high pH levels.

• Pre-Plant Incorporation: For best results, Brimstone 90™ should be applied and incorporated into the soil before planting to allow sufficient time for microbial conversion.

• Variable Rate Application: Precision agriculture techniques can be used to apply Brimstone 90™ at targeted rates, optimising soil correction while minimising input costs.

Ideal for Use in:

• Fruit and Vine Crops: Enhances nutrient uptake in crops such as grapes, citrus, and berries, which thrive in slightly acidic soils.

• Cereals and Oilseeds: Supports strong root development and improved nitrogen efficiency in wheat, barley, and canola.

• Vegetables and Specialty Crops: Helps maintain balanced soil conditions for high-value crops requiring specific pH levels.

• Pastures and Forage Crops: Improves soil structure and nutrient cycling, promoting healthier growth in livestock pastures.

• Potatoes: Brimstone 90™ helps prevent common scab, which thrives in soils with a pH above 7.2, by lowering soil pH to create a more acidic environment that suppresses scab-causing bacteria. This results in healthier tuber development, improved yield, and superior crop quality.

Brimstone 90™ is an essential tool for farmers seeking to improve soil health, boost nutrient efficiency, and support sustainable agricultural practices.
