Importance of potassium in increasing the production of crops

Potassium  is an essential nutrient for plant growth and development. Potassium  helps to protect the crops from drought, frost and pest disease etc. Crops which get the full amount of potassium require relatively less water to produce them, thus the use of potassium improves the water-use efficiency of the crop. Potassium  is the most important factor in improving the quality of crops. It is also very necessary for the development of grain in crops. Potassium is required from the early stage in the crop. This allows full development of the stem so that the plant does not drop. Yellowing of the lower leaves of the crops from the edge is a symptom of deficiency of potassium, this problem does not come with the use of potassium. And the growth of the crop is good, potassium  increases the quality of production, the brightness of the grains, the size, taste and color of the grains also increases due to potassium. The use of potash is very important at the time of land preparation as per the requirement of the crop. Can also be used as a spray in crops, 00:00:50 @ 5 gm per liter of water.
