BioSulphur™ is a Liquid Calcium Ammonium Polysulphide, containing sulphur in an
ultra-fine colloidal form
It is used to correct sulphur deficiency in plants
Balance soil chemistry and pH
Used as a benign fungicide to control various foliar and soil pathogens
As a sulphur source for growth especially in cereal
Also gives the

DESCRIPTION:
BioSulphur™ reg B4006
Corrects acid OR alkaline soil conditions. (see “BioSulphur for pH control”)
Reduces compaction – acts as a “Clay breaker”.
Promotes micro tilling. (see “No-Till” data sheet)
Corrects sulphur deficiency.
Improves nutrient availability.
Alleviates excessive saline conditions.
Reduces Fungal & mildew infestations.
is a Liquid Calcium
BioSulphur™ contains sulphur, calcium and ammonia and can correct either acid or
Ammonium Polysulphide,
alkaline soil conditions. It selectively releases either sulphides (to correct alkalinity) or
calcium/ammonium (to correct acidity) according to the conditions it encounters and adjusts
the pH towards neutral. Because it is held in a colloidal state, the particle size of sulphur
when released in the soil is 0.01 microns, making it 10,000 times more active in terms of
surface area than powdered sulphur.
containing sulphur in an
ultra-fine colloidal form
Soil Structure and Nutrient Availability
With the incorrect soil pH, plant nutrients become less available and soils become
unproductive. Rebalancing these conditions improves the microbial population leading to
increased micro tilling in the root zone, reducing compaction and improved utilisation of
fertiliser. Overall this enhances the health and growth of the plant. In addition, sulphur is
known to be effective in reducing problems from fungal infections.
Sulphur Deficiency
Sulphur is an essential plant nutrient and a deficiency prevents the correct uptake of
nitrogen and the building proteins. Sulphur seldom needed adding to the soil as coal burning
power stations provided plenty to the atmosphere replenishing the soil each time it rained.
This is less true today and many growers are starting to experience sulphur deficiency
problems. BioSulphur™ makes sulphur readily available to the plant through foliage or
roots.

APPLICATION RATES:
In most applications it is recommended to use PanBuster with BioSulphur
P R E C AU T I O N S
This product is intended for Agricultural Use
Only.
Harmful if swallowed.
In case of contact with eyes, rinse
immediately with plenty of clean water (at
least 15 minutes) and seek medical advice.
If swallowed seek medical advice
immediately and show this container or label.
For soil penetration and restructuring, use 1.2L/ha PanBuster with 40-80L/ha of Biosulphur in 300L/ha of water.
For foliar sprays, prepare aqueous solutions of 0.2% PanBuster and 2-5% Biosulphur.
If unsure please consult with Biotechnica advisors
For Clays, saline soils and Soils with excess Calcium, Magnesium or other metals:
Apply to soil prior to sowing at 40 liters/ha diluted in about 300 liters of water.
This may need a second application
For Sulphur Deficiency:
Apply as a foliar spray at 5 – 10 litres/ha diluted in at least 2-5% Solution of water.
S T O R AG E
Store in a cool dry place, away from heat
and free from freezing
Keep sealed in container.

When mixing or exposed to spray, wear
FULL PROTECTIVE CLOTHING including:
facemask, eye shields, gloves and footwear.
Consult Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS)
for further information.
For Diseases: BioSulphur™ can be used to control the following:
 Scab
 Powdery mildew, Downy mildew
 Leaf curl, Leaf spot
 Scale
 Fruit rots
 Rose scale,
 Blackspot
 Rust
 Anthracnose
 Dollar Spot, Fairy Ring
 Fusarium
Treatment levels. Use a 0.5- 2.0% solution in water applied every 7-10 days late in the day to
minimise the risk of scorching.
P AC K I N G :
5 & 20 litre polycans
For Sports and Amenity Grass: Biosulphur helps the grass to use applied nitrogen most
efficiently. It also keeps fungal spores in check. Apply monthly at 300ml per green diluted
in 25 litres of water. Spot check a small area prior to use. (See Fairy Ring and Dollar Spot Protocols)

Note: Avoid application in drought conditions.
Due to its high sulphur content, BioSulphur™ has a strong odour but this quickly disperses.
When using in glasshouses or covered areas, ensure adequate ventilation.
Prior to use, check compatibility with any other products used at the same time. Spot-check on a small area
before foliar treatments.
Always add BioSulphur™ to water and mix well. Wear suitable eye and skin protection when handling the concentrate. In case
of eye contact rinse immediately with plenty of water and obtain medical advice. Wash off any skin contact thoroughly with soap
and water.
