E-Learning & Certification on almond plant nutrition, has been created to familiarize people with almond plant nutrition. Almond is a tree of the family Rosaceae and of the genus Prunus and the species Amygdaluss. href=”https://iranelearn.com/pro/%d8%a2%d9%85%d9%88%d8%b2%d8%b4-%d9%85%d8%ac%d8%a7%d8%b2 %db%8c-%d8%aa%d8%ba%d8%b0%db%8c%d9%87-%da%af%db%8c%d8%a7%d9%87-%d8%a8%d8% a7%d8%af%d8%a7%d9%85″ target=”_blank” rel=”noopener”>one-year branches appear laterally and singly and all almond cultivars are self-sterile or self-infertile, and therefore there must be a pollinating tree in the garden. Almond is one of the treasured perennial woody plants, which is often seen as a tree and in wild species as a shrub. This tree grows well in Mediterranean climate and in areas with hot and dry summers and mild winters.

High-use nutritional elements required by almonds:

+Nitrogen consumption in almond trees: Nitrogen is one of the high-use nutritional elements. It is required for the growth of the almond tree, the deficiency of which appears in the form of pale, small leaves, low strength, dryness of small branches, reduction in the number of fruits in the tree and reduction in yield. The supply of nitrogen in the form of nitrogen increases the efficiency of pollination and fruit set, and as a result, the yield increases. The consumption of nitrogen is divided into three parts and is given to the plant in three phases of Bahman, Esfand and late April. +Insufficient elements required for almond trees: Zinc, copper and boron deficiency have been reported more than the inefficient elements. Zinc deficiency causes the production of small leaves in almonds and yellowing between leaf veins in leaves. Spraying zinc sulfate at the rate of 6.8 to 11.3 kg in 378 liters of water during the plant rest season has given positive results. +Symptoms of copper deficiency in almonds: In the case of copper deficiency, the symptoms appear as low growth, dry skin and shriveling of the almond kernel. Spraying copper EDTA on the foliage has been effective in eliminating the deficiency. +Symptoms of boron deficiency in almonds: Burnt leaf tips are usually observed due to boron deficiency. The application of Brax in the soil at the rate of 66 to 112 kg per hectare eliminates the deficiency symptoms. This amount of boron is enough for four years. +Sampling time of almond leaves for deficiency of elements: One of the ways to detect deficiency in almonds is leaf decomposition. Although the amount of elements in the leaves may be different in different months and different conditions, the best time to collect leaf samples is in June and July.
