Supporting crop growth with foliar feeding

Foliar feeding is one of the modern methods that have been adopted to provide plants with the nutrients necessary for their continued growth and to achieve quantitative and qualitative improvement in yield. All the nutrients are absorbed through which the different leaves are sprayed, and these leaves completely nourish the nutrients and minerals that are supported by them.

Foliar feeding depends on supplying the plant with the necessary nutrients through spraying the vegetative part of the plant, which can absorb these elements through the gaps spread on the surfaces of the upper and lower leaf. Spotting and weakness of the contract.

When to use foliar feeding:

 Basically, foliar feeding cannot be used as a successful alternative for ground fertilizers which are usually taken through the root system, however, it can have an enhanced effect on the nutritional status of the plant, especially in the case of the microelements that the plant needs in small quantities, or those elements whose availability is expected to be negatively affected by soil factors.  Foliar application for specific nutrients may be essential in the following cases

First: during the growth stages, plants are exposed to critical periods where they are not able to obtain fertilizer elements necessary for growth despite the availability of these elements in the soil. This may be due to some factors that negatively affect the extent to which plant benefits from the available nutrients, by absorbing, metabolizing, and transferring them to different storage parts such as fruits, tubers, almonds, roots, branches, and young buds, which ultimately negatively affects the quantity, quality, marketing quality and validity of the crop.

 The most important of these factors are:
