THE ROLE OF MEDIUM ELEMENTS

Medium elements, including calcium, magnesium and sulfur, are indispensable nutrients in plant growth, and they play an important role in plant physiology and growth. The following are the specific effects of medium elements on plant growth

Calcium: Calcium is an important element of cell wall, which is an important component of plasma membrane by combining with protein molecules. It also participates in the metabolic process of plants and regulates physiological balance. When calcium is deficient, plants will have symptoms such as atrophy of growing points and curling of young leaves.

Magnesium: Magnesium is a component of chlorophyll, which is closely related to carbohydrate metabolism, phosphorylation and decarboxylation. When magnesium is deficient, the color between veins fades, and the tip and edge of leaves turn yellow or scorch and die.

Sulfur: Sulfur is an important component of protein and enzymes, which participates in the redox process of plants and affects the formation of chlorophyll. When sulfur is deficient, the plant is short, and the leaves curl up, become hard and fragile.

In addition, medium elements play an important role in improving the yield and quality of crops, improving the inorganic nutrition balance of crops, improving the utilization rate of chemical fertilizers, reducing crop pests and diseases, reducing environmental pollution and improving economic benefits. For example, by increasing the application of medium and trace element fertilizers, the demand of crops for various nutrient elements can be met, so that crops can grow and develop normally, thus obtaining ideal yield and benefits. At the same time, the application of medium and trace element fertilizers can improve the inorganic nutrition balance of crops, greatly increase crop yield, greatly improve the quality of agricultural products and effectively reduce the nitrite content in agricultural products.
