In a bold step toward next-generation crop nutrition, SML Limited has launched Sulanex Z, the world’s first patented granular Dispersible Granule (DG) fertiliser designed to provide balanced nutrition from the earliest stages of crop growth. Representing a leap forward in sustainable agriculture, Sulanex Z is engineered to strengthen plant resilience and optimize yield outcomes—two critical priorities in today’s evolving agri-landscape.
Formulated with Sustained Release Technology (SRT), Sulanex Z gradually delivers essential nutrients such as sulphur and zinc, enhancing early root development, nutrient absorption, and long-term plant health. By supporting crop vigor at germination, the product contributes meaningfully to overall productivity and farmer profitability.
“Sulanex Z is more than just a fertiliser—it’s a foundation for healthier, more resilient crops,” said Anjani Manbansh, Head of Crop Nutrition Portfolio Management at SML Limited. “Its dispersible granule formulation enables a slow, consistent nutrient release, improving availability and absorption while being adaptable to standard farming practices.”
Sulanex Z has been designed with farmer ease and adaptability in mind. It integrates seamlessly with existing agricultural routines and is compatible with seed drills and basal fertilisers. The product is suitable across multiple application methods—whether drilled into rows for cereals and pulses, broadcast for paddy cultivation, or applied in rings or spots for fruit and vegetable crops—enhancing on-field efficiency regardless of cropping system.
With a recommended dose of 8 kg per acre, Sulanex Z offers multiple agronomic benefits. It promotes uniform and healthy germination, encourages robust root development, enhances micronutrient levels in crops, helps balance soil pH in alkaline conditions, and improves tolerance to early-stage biotic and abiotic stress. These advantages together lead to stronger crop performance and greater income stability for farmers.
By merging advanced agronomy with farmer-centric design, Sulanex Z positions SML Limited at the forefront of crop nutrition innovation. As the global food system faces increasing pressure to produce more with less, innovations like Sulanex Z are poised to play a defining role in enabling high productivity while supporting soil health and long-term sustainability.
