Fact sheet: Nutrient element functions in vegetable crops

Fact sheet
On-farm and crop management

Do you know your macronutrients from your micronutrients?

Plant nutrients are commonly split into two categories:

  • Major elements (macronutrients) that are required in relatively large quantities by plants.
  • Trace elements (micronutrients) that are essential for plant growth, but are only required in small amounts.

All elements must be available in a form that is useable by a plant, and in balanced concentrations that allow optimum plant growth.

Download this summary from the Soil Wealth ICP team to find out more about what plant nutrients do, and how they need to be applied for the plant to make the best use of your investment in fertilisers.
