Nutrient Deficiencies in Plants

Plants need a variety of nutrients to grow strong and healthy, but what happens when key nutrients are missing? In this comprehensive video, we cover the major macronutrient and micronutrient deficiencies that affect plant growth and productivity. We explain why some nutrients are mobile (like nitrogen, potassium, and magnesium) and others are immobile (like calcium, sulfur, and iron), and how this determines whether deficiency symptoms show up in older or younger leaves. Discover how specific deficiencies lead to visible symptoms like chlorosis, necrosis, poor seed set, and distorted growth. Don't miss the quiz below to test your knowledge of nutrient deficiencies! 1. What is the difference between mobile and immobile nutrients, and how does it affect where deficiency symptoms appear on the plant? 2. What symptoms would you expect to see in a plant deficient in potassium, and why do they appear? 3. How does molybdenum deficiency specifically affect legumes, and why is nitrogen fixation important for these plants?
