Abstract


The rate of mineralisation of sulphur in soils is higher during the first or second week, when the favourable environmental factors such as noisture and temperature are prevailing. Addition of elemental sulphur stimulates the mineralisation process; as it gives energy to the sulphur oxidising organisms. The rate of mineralisation is lowered after two wooks, probably due to the Immobilisation of sulphur.compounds as they might be assimilated to the microbial tissue.
