- SSP contains Calcium which is essential for continuous cell division and cell wall formation and ensures a healthy crop
- SSP is the cheapest source of sulphur for the soil. Sulphur helps in chlorophyll formation which induces photosynthesis
- It is widely used in most of the crops at the time of sowing as basal application
- Sugarcane & Oilseed farmers have a special preference for SSP
