16 Essential Elements For Plant Growth || For The Benefit Of Farmers || Agri Knowledge || Learning |

Welcome to Arihant Group of Industries’ Youtube channel. A platform to get a lot of helpful knowledge and information related to farming, its problems, and their easy, effective, and innovative solutions. In this video, we are going to the absolute basics: the building blocks of plant growth. The essential nutrients that are generally needed by any plant during its complete life cycle. Like us human beings, plants also need nutrients for their development. Just the way we need the right type of nutrients in the right proportions to develop our strength and to grow, Plants also require these nutrients in different quantities, at different stages of their life cycle, for different purposes. Further in this video, we will discuss a little bit about all these nutrients and their roles and importance when it comes to plant growth. Plants most commonly require 16 nutrients throughout all stages of their life cycle. These nutrients can be majorly classified into 4 categories: Environmentally available nutrients, Primary nutrients, Secondary nutrients, and Micro Nutrients. Environmentally available nutrients: carbon, hydrogen, oxygen Primary Nutrients include nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, Secondary nutrients – calcium, magnesium, sulfur Micronutrients – boron, iron, manganese, zinc, copper, molybdenum, chlorine Lets find out more about these: Environmental Nutrients The 3 nutrients that are taken up from the atmosphere by plants are Carbon, Hydrogen, and oxygen. This is why they are also called non-mineral nutrients. Plants absorb carbon and oxygen from the air through their leaves as carbon dioxide (CO2). In the photosynthesis process, they transform carbon dioxide and water into hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen. All other nutrients are absorbed through their root system. Carbon (C) is the primary building material for leaves, roots, and stems. While Oxygen (O) is an essential part of glucose production, which is used for energy in nutrient uptake by roots. And Hydrogen (H) aids in proton gradients, which are essential for photosynthesis. Hydrogen is necessary for building sugars and other molecules to produce glucose for plant energy. Plants from the Legumes family can use atmospheric nitrogen. They work with helpful bacteria that help them absorb it by converting it into ammonia and ammonium. This process is called ‘nitrogen fixation’. Moving on to Primary Nutrients Macronutrients are required in relatively large quantities. Primary nutrients need to be supplied as part of an NPK (nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium) fertilizer. Some plants have different NPK requirements, each stage of the growth cycle (such as root development or flowering) may have different NPK needs as well. Nitrogen (N) is a major component of several essential compounds, such as chlorophyll and amino acids. It promotes structural and vegetative growth of stems and leaves. While Phosphorus (P) is a vital component of ATP (used for energy), holds DNA and RNA together, and has several other major uses. It promotes root and fruit growth. And Potassium (K) regulates the opening and closing of stomata during photosynthesis. It promotes general plant growth. Lets get to know Secondary Nutrients Secondary nutrients are required in smaller quantities than the primary nutrients above and can be supplied by calcium nitrate (calcium) and Epsom salt (magnesium and sulfur). Calcium (Ca) strengthens cell walls and aids in water movement. Magnesium (Mg) is a central component of chlorophyll and works as a phosphorus carrier. Sulfur (S) is a major building block of both amino acids and chlorophyll. Coming to the MICRONUTRIENTS Boron (B), Zinc (Zn), Copper (Cu), Manganese (Mn), Iron (Fe), Chlorine(CI) and Molybdenum (Mo) are used in minute amounts but are just as important to plant growth and development as the major nutrients. In fact, some micronutrients control the uptake of major nutrients and key processes. Boron (B) is key for the germination of pollen grains and the growth of pollen tubes. Chlorine (Cl) enhances the maturity of small grains on some soils. Copper (Cu) plays a major role in photosynthesis. This element improves the flavour of fruits and vegetables and can help prevent some fungal infections in cereals. Iron (Fe) is a major component of chloroplasts, which produce chlorophyll. It also acts as an oxygen carrier. Manganese (Mn) is important for pollen germination and root disease resistance. Molybdenum (Mo) aids in the nodulation of legumes, especially in acidic soils. 16 Essential Elements For Plant Growth || For The Benefit Of Farmers || Agri Knowledge || Learning | #essential #elements #learning #farmers #makeinindia #farming #organicfertilizer #soilhealth #ecofreindly #nanotechnology #organicfarming #agribusiness #agriculture #Liquidfertilizer #npkgel #npkfertilizer #arihant #nanofertilizer #education #motivation #abioticstress #bioticstress #madeinindia #madeinindiaproduct
