Sulfur fertilizers are essential agricultural inputs that provide the necessary sulfur for optimal plant growth and development. Sulfur is a vital macronutrient required by plants, playing a crucial role in indispensable biological processes, including protein synthesis, chlorophyll formation, and the metabolism of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. The increasing global population demands higher agricultural production to ensure food security, which drives the need for high-quality fertilizers capable of improving yield per unit area. Agricultural practices have increased awareness of the potential sulfur deficiency in soils worldwide, encouraging the utility of sulfur-based fertilizers. However, fluctuations in raw material prices, particularly crude oil derivatives used in fertilizer production, can negatively impact profit margins for manufacturers. Environmental concerns associated with excessive fertilizer use leading to soil degradation, greenhouse gas emissions, and water pollution pose challenges to the growth of the sulfur fertilizers market. On the other hand, recent technological advancements have yielded opportunities for innovation in developing novel sulfur fertilizer formulations that offer improved efficiency and ease of use. Precision agriculture provides promising opportunities for integrating advanced tools such as remote sensing devices and geographic information systems (GIS) for targeted and efficient application of sulfur fertilizers.
