Nitrogen deficiency-Banana

Symptoms
Symptoms of nitrogen deficiency start on older leaves. The leaves become light green and later yellow. The veins do not remain green. At severe deficiency, the leaves become necrotic and die off.

Reasons
Nitrogen deficiency. N deficiency is often associated with root damage, caused by nematodes, or extreme dry or wet soil conditions. Sulfur deficiency shows similar symptoms with light green or yellow leaves but the symptoms start on younger leaves. With iron deficiency, the leaves become also yellow but the symptoms start on younger leaves and the midrib remains green for some time.

Symptoms
Symptoms of nitrogen deficiency start on the oldest leaves which become increasingly yellow. Veins do not remain green. Petioles show a reddish discoloration. Growth is generally stunted, with reduced plant height and leaf size. Leaf alignment shows 'rosetting'.
