THE ROLE OF IRON AND MANGANESE - Iron is of key importance in the formation of chlorophyll essential for photosynthesis. It also plays a major role in the various enzyme activity and energy transfer functions involved in respiration and nitrogen fixation. Manganese too affects the structure of the chloroplasts important in photosynthesis thus affecting the efficiency of this important process. These two elements work hand-in-hand to ensure the optimal production of chlorophyll essential to this process.

TYPICAL IRON AND MANGANESE DEFICIENCIES - Deficiency of both Iron and Manganese are very common on high pH soils or soils having an excess of heavy metals and may also be prevalent on highly weathered sandy soils, due to leaching. Main symptoms of deficiency include:

• Interveinal chlorosis and general yellowing of the leaves.
• Loss of chlorophyll in young leaves.
• Uneven distribution of chlorophyll in older leaves.
• Severe deficiency may exhibit brown spotting and die back.
