Molybdenum (Mo) - soil and crop
Definition
Molybdenum (Mo) is involved in the formation of a number of enzymes and is needed for the fixation of nitrogen by leguminous plants.
Acidic soils and the presence of iron and aluminum oxides reduce Mo-availability. In some cases, liming soils can eliminate deficiencies in Mo.
Importance
Butterflies and vegetables have a high Mo requirement. Grasses and cereals require little Mo.
