Balancing Act: Nitrogen and Potassium Key to Boosting Apple Photosynthesis

By www.newswise.com
Published On :: Tue, 12 Nov 2024 10:35:15 EST

Nitrogen and potassium are fundamental nutrients for plant growth, but imbalances frequently disrupt agricultural systems. In apple orchards, low potassium can severely limit carbon and nitrogen metabolism, impairing photosynthesis and yield. Potassium availability is often reduced by environmental factors such as soil leaching, while nitrogen is frequently over-applied due to its affordability and yield-enhancing effects. Given these challenges, optimizing nitrogen and potassium levels in apple trees warrants further research to counter the negative impact of nutrient imbalances on plant health and productivity.
