Why use Magnesium on cotton crop

  • Magnesium plays an important role in the process of plant photosynthesis and is a key element in chlorophyll, it is one of the most important nutrients, involved in many enzyme activities and the structural stabilization of Plant Tissues. 
  • Deficiency symptoms (25-30 DAS) first appear on the lower leaves and shed prematurely, showing purplish red leaves with green veins.
  • Magnesium deficiency in soil can be arrested by applying Magnesium sulfate 9.5% @ 10 kg/acre as Basal dosage at the time of Sowing.
  • Magnesium sulfate @ 70-80 gram per acre is sprayed twice a week in order to remove the lack of magnesium deficiency in cotton crop.
