INTRODUCTIONIn India, oilseeds are the second largest agricultural commodity after cereals, which occupy about 13.5% of the gross cropped area in the country, and account for 5% of GNP and 10% of the value of all agricultural products (Rai et al., 2002). Among oilseeds, rapeseed & mustard occupies a prestigious position and ranks second after groundnut in area and production, contributing 23% of the total oilseed production. It is estimated that 58 million tons of oilseeds will be required by the year 2020, wherein the share of rapeseed-mustard will be around 24.2million tons (Bartaria et al., 2001).

India is one of the major rapeseed-mustard cultivating countries in the world ranking third in terms of acreage (19.29%) after Canada (24.55%) and China(20.58%).
It account for 11.127% of total production next to China(22.08%) and Canada(21.77%).
It cultivated in about 6.70 mha of area and with total production of about 7.96 million tonnes with an average productivity of 1188 kg/ha.(DOAC,2014)
Uttar Pradesh share 10.8%(6.60 lakh ha.) area and 10.3% (7.70 lakh tone)production of India (DOAC,2014)

Sulphur (S) is one of the essential secondary macronutrient required for the growth, metabolism and development of all plants and is rightly called as the fourth major plant nutrient.
It is the 13th abundant mineral in the earth crust(0.06%-0.10)
It’s essentiality was established by Sachs Knop in 1857.
It is constituent of amino acid (cysteine ,cystine, methionine) and vitamins ,needed for activity of many enzymes.
Its critical level in soil usually 10 mg/kg (range 8-30 mg/kg)
Its critical level in plant is <0.15-0.2% .

Part of every living cell
Necesary for the formation of chlorophyll
constituent of three Important amino acid namely cysteine(26%s),cystine (27%s) and methionine (21%s)
Help in synthesis of fat or oil
Involved in the formation of glucosides and glucusinolates , synthesis of glutathione.
Constituent of Fe-S protein called ferrodoxins for activity of ATP- sulphurylase which involved in S metabolism.

![Page 10: SULPHUR MANAGEMENT IN RAPESEED AND MUSTARD](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062522/5876a2b31a28abd6508b5773/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Sulphur (S) is a crucial element for rapeseed & mustard in determining its seed yield, oil content, quality, and resistance to various biotic and abiotic stresses.
Besides promoting chlorophyll formation and oil synthesis, it is an important constituent of seed protein, amino acids, various enzymes, and glucosinolate.
Sulphur increases the seed yield of mustard by 12 to 48% under irrigated and 17 to 124% under rainfed conditions (Aulakh and Pasricha, 1988).
The increase in oil content of mustard due to S application is associated with the increase activity of an enzyme named acetyl-CoA carboxylase, which is also a precursor for oil synthesis
Rapeseed-mustard requires 0.33 to 0.40% S in leaf for obtaining 90% of its potential yield (Cheema and Arora, 1984).

Sulphur deficiencies have been reported from more than 70 countries over the world, including India.
Intensification of agriculture with high yielding crop varieties and multiple cropping, coupled with use of high analysis S-free fertilizers and restricted use of organic manures, has accelerated the deficiencies of S in arable lands.
Most of the soils of Indo-Gangetic plains,red,latreitic and hill soils are prone to S deficiency while coastal soils are reported to be adequate in it.
Sulphur deficiency is also wide spread in calcareous as well as medium and shallow black clay soils due to low organic matter content.

Progressively greater removal of soil Sulphur as a result of higher agricultural production and cultivation.
Low level of fertiliser use in pulses and oilseeds that have a higher requirement of S than cereals per unit of grain production.
Use of high analysis N and P fertiliser containing little or no sulphur like urea and DAP instead of using (NH4)2SO4 and SSP.
Lesser use of organic matter,crop residue and S containing pesticides.
Leaching and erosion losses of S.
Causes of sulphur deficiency
![Page 19: SULPHUR MANAGEMENT IN RAPESEED AND MUSTARD](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062522/5876a2b31a28abd6508b5773/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

As sulphur is an immobile nutrient in plant , the deficiency symptoms first appear on younger leaves.
Yellowing of younger leaves which persist even after N application,and become cup shaped at the later stage .
Underside of leaves turn redding . Stems of the crop also become reddish tint Growing points are arrested. Stunted plants. Delayed maturity. An excess of sulphur free amino acid
(e.g.asparagine,glutamine and arginine) due to the inhibition of protein synthesis

Correction of sulphur deficiency
In view of the increasing incidence of sulphur deficiency in soils & plants, it is important to suggest corrective measures for ameliorations of sulphur deficiency. The major source of sulphur are gypsum, pyrities, & elemental sulphur, and the sulphur containing nitrogenous (ammonium sulphate), phosphatic (SSP), potassic (potassium sulphate) fertilizer and micronutrients fertilizers like zink sulphate, copper sulphate, ferrous sulphate etc.
![Page 23: SULPHUR MANAGEMENT IN RAPESEED AND MUSTARD](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062522/5876a2b31a28abd6508b5773/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
SOURCES OF SULPHUR In natural condition, major source of S is organic matter.
>95% of total sulphur present in organic matter.S originated in soil through weathering of rocks.In arid condition S forms sulphates of Calcium, Magnesium,
Sodium and Potassium.
In atmosphere S present in the form of SO2.
In most of cultivated land sulphur ranges from 8-30 mg/kg.
![Page 24: SULPHUR MANAGEMENT IN RAPESEED AND MUSTARD](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062522/5876a2b31a28abd6508b5773/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Sulphur is 13th abundant element in the earth crust, average ranging between 0.06-0.10. Sulphur in soil being derived from weathering of rocks and soils; i.e. gypsum, barite, epsomite, mirabirite.
The C:N:S ratio of soil organic matter is approximately 125:10:1.2 .
The soil with less than 10 mg kg-1 available sulphur is considered as low. However , the critical level may ranges between 8 to 30 mg kg-1, depending upon the method of extraction , soil type and nature of the crop.
Status of sulphur in soil
![Page 25: SULPHUR MANAGEMENT IN RAPESEED AND MUSTARD](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062522/5876a2b31a28abd6508b5773/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Sulphur in the form of sulphate represent the readily available to the plants. Root absorb SO4
2- ions by mass flow and diffusion process.
S content in the plant ranges between 0.1 to 0.5 with an average of 0.2 to 0.3 S in plants has been considered as a critical limit of deficiency.
The economic part of plant (grain, fruits ) accumulates higher S than non-economic parts.
S uptake is generally 9-15% of N uptake though it can ranges from 5-30%.

Factors affecting availability of sulphur
I. Soil organic matter :- A higher amount of total sulphur has been reported in surface than sub surface soil. This is due to a higher OM content in surface soil. Sulphur is a constituent of OM, the amount and nature of OM govern its content in soil.
II. Soil texture:- Finer textured soils contain a higher amount of total and available sulphur than coarse textured soil.
III. Soil reaction:- In general, acidic soil contain higher amount of S than the alkaline soil.

IV. Salt content:- Accumulation of sulphur is accompanied by the accumulation of sulphates. High content of salt in coastal saline and alkaline alluvial soil have resulted from the accumulation of salt of sulphate in these soils.
V. Climate:-Soils located at higher altitude compared with lower altitude contain a higher amount of total and available sulphur , because of increase in OM content of soils because of higher rainfall and lower temperature at high altitude.
![Page 33: SULPHUR MANAGEMENT IN RAPESEED AND MUSTARD](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062522/5876a2b31a28abd6508b5773/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
The Sulphur CycleThe essential steps of the sulphur cycle are:- Mineralization of organic sulphur to the inorganic form, hydrogen sulphide, H2S.
Oxidation of sulphide and elemental sulphide(S) and related compounds to sulphide, SO4
2-
Reduction of sulphate to sulphide.
Microbial immobilization of the sulphur compounds and subsequent incorporation into the organic form of sulphur.

S oxidation:- Sulphur oxidation occuring in soil is mostly
biochemical in nature. S-oxidation is accomplished by no. of autotrophic bacteria including those of genus Thiobacillus , four spp. of which have been characterized:-
(a) Thiobacillus thiooxidans. (b) T. thioparus. (c) T. denitificans. (d) T. ferroxidans. Reaction:- H2S + 2O2

Sulphur reduction• Sulphates tends to be unstable in anaerobic
environments so they are reduced to sulphides by a no. of bacteria of two genera- Desulphovibrio and Desulphotomaculum.
The organism use the combined oxygen in sulphate to oxidize organic materials.

At the proper physiological stage of the plant.
Application of sulphate-S to mustard at seedingtime gives the highest increase in yield and S uptake.(Malhi et al.,
2005).
Applications at sowing are generally more effective than at early flowering stages.(Rathor et al.,2015)
An application at early flowering can moderately correct S deficiency damage (Malhi, et al., 2005).
In case, if the S application is missed at sowing, S may be top dressed to 20-40 days of growth to get good yield.
S is leachable, like nitrate, it is safer to apply close to the time of plant uptake by splitting the doses.

BASAL APPLICATON:-Especially for sandy soil BROADCASTING:-If adequate rainfall or irrigation is
available to leach the S into the root zone. SIDE BANDING:-It is the most effective way to apply
sulphate-S fertilizers to produce maximum seed yield and to prevent any damage to mustard seedlings.
BROADCAST-INCORPORATION:-This method can produce seed yield similar to side banding (Malhi, et al., 2005).
FOLIAR SPRAY:-This method is less effective as compare to soil application due to high requirement of crop, but if S deficiency symptoms appear on foliage, 3-5 sprays of 0.5% soluble sulphate salts like ammonium sulphate, potassium sulphate, zinc sulphate etc. can be done on the standing crop.

Conclusion: • As sulphur intracts synergistically with N,P,Ca,Zn and antagonistically with P, Mg, Mo. The balanced rates of different fertilizer nutrients including sulphur should be worked out for different oilseed crops.• There is also the need to develop extension literature on Sulphur fertilization and wall charts, slides sets and video assettes on the subject.• Agriculture Instututions should suggested to the state soil testing laboratories about precise sulphur recommendations based on soil testing.•In order to harness the full potential of newly evolved high yielding varieties of rapeseed and mustard crops, fertilizer sulphur must form a part of their integrated management programme.•Strategies need to be developed to encourage more use of S through judicious mix of fertilizer S, byproduct S, and organic manure attaining sustainable high mustard productivity.
