Low or high pH soils
Sandy or light soils (leaching
) Low organic matter
Drought conditions
High rainfall (leaching) or heavy irrigation
Addition or high levels of non-decomposed organic matter/manure (eg straw)
Fast growing crops

Nitrogen is important for

Better synthesis of amino acids
Improved formulation of co-enzymes and nucleric acids
Increased synthesis of chlorophyll and ATP
Thus improved crop vigor and development
