Manganese deficiency can cause interveinal chlorosis, which is a yellowing of the leaves between the veins. Nitrogen deficiency can cause a general yellowing of the leaves, while zinc deficiency can cause a mottled appearance on the leaves.<\/p>\n<p>To prevent iron deficiency in maize, it is important to apply iron-rich fertilizer to the soil. Iron can also be applied as a foliar spray, but this is not as effective as applying it to the soil.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Join Our Telegram Channel Subscribe on YouTube<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[204],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.2 (Yoast SEO v23.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>White tip of maize leaves indicates the deficiency of<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Maize leaves turn white at the tips due to iron deficiency.
