Micronutrients are essential elements required by plants in small quantities but play a crucial role in growth, development, and yield. Deficiencies in these nutrients can lead to poor crop health, reduced productivity, and lower quality produce. Addressing micronutrient imbalances through targeted applications ensures optimal plant metabolism and soil fertility.

Importance:

• Zinc (Zn): Essential for enzyme activation, protein synthesis, and plant hormone production. Deficiency leads to stunted growth, interveinal chlorosis, and poor grain formation.
• Boron (B): Critical for cell wall formation, pollen development, and sugar transport. Deficiency causes hollow stems, poor fruit setting, and brittle leaves.
• Iron (Fe): Vital for chlorophyll synthesis and energy transfer. Deficiency results in yellowing of young leaves (interveinal chlorosis), weak growth, and low yields.
• Magnesium (Mg): Central component of chlorophyll and aids in photosynthesis. Deficiency leads to leaf discoloration, weak root development, and reduced crop quality.
