Soya bean - Deformation

Symptoms
Mg deficiency symptoms are light green to yellow chloroses of interveinal tissues. Leaf margins are bent down. The older, lower leaves are affected first.

Reasons
Magnesium deficiency Magnesium deficiency is most prevalent in deep, sandy, acidic soil.

Soya bean - Chlorosis

Symptoms
Mg deficiency symptoms are in the beginning light green to yellow chlorosis of interveinal tissues. The leaf base is concerned at last. Whitish to light brown necrotic blotches occur on the interveinal, marginal areas. Leaf edges show a whitish, bleached tint.

Reasons
Magnesium deficiency Magnesium deficiency is most prevalent in deep, sandy, acidic soil.

Magnesium deficiency made worse by

  • Sandy soils
  • Acidic soils
  • Potassium rich soils
  • Soils receiving high potash applications
  • Cold wet periods

Magnesium is important for

  • Complete chlorophyll molecules
  • Increased phosphate and nitrogen metabolism
  • Improved protein synthesis
  • More efficiant water uptake by the plant
