Magnesium functions in plant

• Core component in chlorophyll
• Assists in phosphate uptake
• Required in photosynthesis
• Aids in enzyme regulation
• Encourages seed production
• Assists in uptake of other nutrients

Magnesium can be deficient in

• Sandy soils, compacted soils
• High soil pH or low soil pH
• Excessive phosphorus, calcium, zinc, manganese or copper levels

Symptoms

• Interveinal chlorosis of the older, lower leaves
• Leaf drop, weak stalks, irregular roots
• Pale green color in older leaves
• Leaf margins curl up, may turn brown to purple in color

Critical levels in plant and soil tests

• Plant Tissue: Mg percentage
  Critical levels at about .30%-.60%
  Corn: .20%-.60%
  Beans: .30%-.60%
  Wheat: .20%-.60%
• Soil Test: parts per million (ppm), 0-6”
  Deficient: <86 ppm
  Marginal: 86-170 ppm
  Sufficient: >170 ppm
