Corn - Chlorosis
Symptoms
Plant shows stunted, erect growth with interveinal chlorosis of the younger leaves.
Reasons
Sulfur deficiency
Corn - Chlorosis
Symptoms
Plant shows stunted, erect growth. Seen from a distance, younger leaves are colored uniformly pale, but when you look at them closely, it's rather an interveinal chlorosis. The yellowgreen leaves show a narrow brown seam along the leaf margin.
Reasons
Sulfur deficiency (right).
Nitrogen deficiency can cause similar symptoms but begins at the older leaves.

Sulfur deficiency made worse by
- Acidic soils
 - Light, sandy soils (leaching)
 - Low organic matter
 - Poorly aerated soils (waterlogged soils
 - ) Areas with low industrial emissions
 
Sulfur is important for
- Green foliage and healthy growth
 - More effective use of nitrogen by the crop
