Why is sulfur important?

As the fourth-most important nutrient, sulfur plays an important role in the formation of amino acids, proteins, and oils and is critical in chlorophyll formation. Nitrogen and sulfur are linked to a degree, because sulfur plays a role in the activation of the enzyme "nitrate reductase," which helps convert nitrates to amino acids. Therefore, nitrogen use efficiency may be reduced if sul...
