Chapter 59, Problem 2COQ
Summary Introduction
To determine: The reason for nitrogen as a limiting nutrient and discuss the methods to increase the supply of nitrogen to plants.
Introduction: Nitrogen is present in the atmosphere both in the free as well as in combined form such as nitrates and nitrites. Atmospheric nitrogen cannot be used by plants, so certain bacteria called nitrogen-fixing bacteria are responsible for fixing the atmospheric nitrogen for uptake by plants. Nitrogen is an essential abiotic component that is essential for the survival of plants.
