The subject of the course; ; To understand the differences between different plant species, genotypes and varieties of nutrients and their use strategies in order to obtain maximum product in agricultural production. For this purpose; (1) the intake efficiency of nutrients by plants; (2) the efficiency of distribution of nutrients between plant organs; and (3) the use of nutrients by plants.
What is the nutrient use efficiency? How to estimate the efficiency of nutrient use in plants? What are the factors affecting the development of BMKE in plants? Importance of soil factors. The importance of fertilizer factors. Importance of plant factors. Issues that need to be addressed when approaching the issue from an agricultural point of view. Biological approximation methods. Importance of climate factors.
