Abstract

Oilseeds play a pivotal role in India’s agricultural economy, with oil derived from these crops serving as a fundamental raw material for various industries. Sulphur (S) plays a crucial role in augmenting both the yield and quality of oilseed crops. Achieving a balanced fertilization strategy that incorporates S is imperative for fostering the high-quality growth of oilseed crops. Several researches indicate that S application in the range of 20-60 kg ha-1 substantially influences crop growth, yield, nutrient uptake and the economic aspects of oilseed cultivation. This review offers valuable insights into the latest research endeavors conducted in the realm of oilseed crops, specifically concerning sulphur application.
