Symptoms
All leaves show an even, yellowgreen chlorosis.
Reasons
Sulphur deficiency
Symptoms of sulphur deficiency are similar to nitrogen deficiency, but occur on young leaves first.
Grassland - Deformation
Symptoms
The complete plant shows an even, yellowgreen chlorosis. Leaf tips are coloured light brown to whitish and partly break off, giving the plant a stubby appearance.
Reasons
Sulphur deficiency
Symptoms of sulphur deficiency are similar to nitrogen deficiency, but occur on young leaves first.
Grassland - Deformation
Symptoms
The complete plant shows an even, yellowgreen chlorosis. Size is severely stunted and the plant has a short, stubby appearance.
Reasons
Sulphur deficiency

Reasons
Sulphur deficiency (left).
Symptoms of sulphur deficiency are similar to nitrogen deficiency, but occur on young leaves first.
Sulphur deficiency made worse by
Acidic soils
Light, sandy soils (leaching)
Low organic matter
Poorly aerated soils (waterlogged soils
) Areas with low industrial emissions
Sulphur is important for
Component of enzymes and other proteins
Necessary for chlorophyll formation and efficient N-utilization
