Sulphur is an important nutrient for optimal plant growth; it is one of the key macroelements essential for plant growth. Sulphur is taken up from the soil solution by the plant in the sulphate form (SO4^2-). In the plant sulphur is a component of methionine, cysteine and cystine, three of the 21 amino acids which are the essential building

Treatment/neutralisation of acid sulfate soils involves the physical incorporation of neutralising/alkaline materials into the soil. Agricultural lime is the best choice for acid sulfate soil application. Thoroughly mixing the appropriate amount and type of lime into disturbed acid sulfate soils will neutralise any acid produced. Lime has an alkaline pH and buffers any acid produced
