EBS Sulphur and Iron Bacteria is a liquid biofertilizer containing beneficial Sulphur solubilizing bacteria and iron-solubilizing bacteria. EBS Sulphur and Iron Solubilizing bacteria convert naturally available sulphur into available forms that are easily absorbed by the roots of plants. Sulphur solubilizing bacteria also improve the overall health of crops, including bananas, watermelon, papaya, grapes, pomegranate, and other vegetables. The iron and sulphur fertilizer supports microbial activity and enhances soil health.
Key Features and Benefits of Sulphur & Iron Bacteria:
Better Nutrient Availability: Sulphur & Iron Bacteria help convert fixed sulphur and iron into available forms that plants can absorb more easily.
Improved Iron Uptake: Iron solubilizing bacteria support iron availability, which is important for chlorophyll formation and healthy green leaves.
Sulphur Nutrition: Sulphur solubilizing bacteria help improve sulphur availability for protein formation and overall crop development.
Root Development: Sulphur & Iron Bacteria support a strong root system and reduce the risk of crop loss.
Crop Growth: The iron and sulphur fertilizer supports flowering, fruit development, grain formation, and overall crop vigor.
Sulphur & Iron Bacteria Uses:
Sulphur solubilizing bacteria and iron-solubilizing bacteria are suitable for a wide range of crops where sulphur and iron availability needs improvement.
Field Crops: Wheat, Maize, Cotton, Pearl Millet, Tobacco
Pulse Crops: Green Gram, Chickpea

How to Use Sulphur & Iron Bacteria:
Shake the iron and sulfur fertilizer container properly before use.
For seed treatment, use 10 ml of Sulphur & Iron Bacteria per kg of seed.
For soil application, mix the sulphur solubilizing bacteria formulation with well-decomposed FYM or compost.
Apply the mixture uniformly near the active root zone.
For drip irrigation, dilute the recommended iron and sulphur fertilizer quantity in water and apply through the system.
Maintain suitable soil moisture to support microbial activity.
Best Time to Apply:
Apply Sulphur & Iron Bacteria during seed treatment, sowing, transplanting, or early active crop growth. Iron-solubilizing bacteria and sulphur solubilizing bacteria work best when the root zone has sufficient moisture and active microbial conditions.
Frequency of Application and Compatibility:
Frequency: Apply the iron and sulphur fertilizer according to crop stage, soil condition, and nutrient requirement.
Compatibility: Sulphur solubilizing bacteria can generally be used with organic manure and compatible biofertilizers.
Application: Iron solubilizing bacteria can be applied through seed treatment, soil application, or drip irrigation.
Safety Precautions and Handling:
Wear gloves while handling the iron and sulfur fertilizer.
Avoid direct contact with eyes and mouth.
Wash hands after applying Sulphur & Iron Bacteria.
Use clean equipment for mixing and application of sulphur solubilizing bacteria.
Storage Instructions:
Store Sulphur & Iron Bacteria in its original sealed container.
Keep the iron and sulfur fertilizer in a cool, dry, shaded place.
Protect Sulphur solubilizing bacteria and iron-solubilizing bacteria from direct sunlight and excessive heat.
