as a result of synthetic nitrogen fertilizer use.[4] Fertilizers typically provide‚ in varying proportions: six macronutrients: nitrogen (N)‚ phosphorus (P)‚ potassium (K)‚ calcium (Ca)‚ magnesium (Mg)‚ and sulfur (S); eight micronutrients: boron (B)‚ chlorine (Cl)‚ copper (Cu)‚ iron (Fe)‚ manganese (Mn)‚ molybdenum (Mo)‚ zinc (Zn) and nickel (Ni) (1987). The macronutrients are consumed in larger quantities and are present in plant tissue in quantities from 0.15% to 6.0% on a dry matter (DM)

Effects of Plant Nutrient Deficiency Abstract This experiment aimed to determine the effects of nutrient deficiency on plants. This was done by examining tomato plants grown in a medium that contained all the nutrients needed to survive and comparing those results to plants that were grown in nutrient deficient mediums. The biomass and standard chlorophyll content were the focus of the experiment. The biomass was measured by taking the mass of the plant. The standard chlorophyll content was

Manures The deficiency of plant nutrients and organic matter in the soil is made up by adding manures and fertilizers to the soil of crop-fields. Both manures and fertilizers are major sources of nutrients of plants‚ so they are used in crop production. Besides water CO2 and sunlight plants required no. of elements for their growth. These elements are known as nutrient. Plants get their elements from the salt of these elements present in the soil. But after repeated cultivation of plants soil become

Unlike Earth‚ Mars soil does not have as much nitrogen and potassium‚ but it does contain a great amount of macronutrients and micronutrients. Nitrogen in the air can be converted into ammonia‚ and when mixed with the macronutrients and micronutrients it can make excellent fertilizer (Hender). Since the soil on the planet is farmable we can plant many different plants to
