Manganese is a chemically active trace element that plays a critical role in plant metabolism and the formation of their productivity. Its availability to the root system is directly limited by the physicochemical properties of the soil, including acidity and the dynamics of the soil solution. For an agronomist and a plant production specialist, it is extremely important to understand the biogeochemical patterns of this element, since its deficiency or excess can significantly reduce yield and product quality, creating systemic problems in intensive agriculture.
In this selection, we have combined materials that help to comprehensively assess the role of manganese in an agrochemical strategy. The reader will find expert articles on the forms in which the element is found in soils, methods for diagnosing its deficiency in various crops, and practical approaches to the application of specialized micronutrient fertilizers. In addition, the selection includes works on related aspects of plant nutrition, touching upon the role of other trace elements, the principles of agrochemical analysis of substrates, and general strategies for fertilizer application. This data will become a reliable methodological basis for fine-tuning nutritional systems and increasing the efficiency of agrotechnical measures for field and greenhouse crops.
