Iron plays a big role in fast growth and good yield of crops

Iron element (Fe) known as ferrous is essential for crop growth and production.
Iron is a component of many enzymes associated with energy transfer, nitrogen reduction and fixation.
Iron deficiency is usually seen in soils with high pH because iron is unavailable to the plant in such soil.
Young leaves are chlorotic in iron-deficient plants.
Pale yellow mottling starts at the base of the leaves and spreads upward along the mid-rib and outward along the veins.
Its deficiency can be controlled by spraying @150-200 gm/acre of chelated Iron.
