Potassium deficiency made worse by

Acidic soils (low pH)
Sandy or light soils (leaching)
Drought conditions
High rainfall (leaching)
or heavy irrigation
Heavy clay (illite) soils
Soils with low K reserves
Magnesium rich soils

Potassium is important for

Resistance to cold injury and drought
High yields through increased biomass and head weight
Consistent, early and evenly matured marketable crop
