Main Common Issues

  • Soil: Symptoms of the plants show high ratio of Sodium and Chloride.

  • Tissue: Observed low level of major elements and high deficiency in Trace Elements (Zn, Cu, Mo, B and Mg).

  • Roots: Observed infestation with root knots Nematode, being more severe in Yellow trees. Nematode problem increases during summer mostly  in sandy soils causing the trees to weaken and explains the yellowing. Nematode also causes root infection such as Fusarium root which rots trees, khamedj disease which increases the Damage of the trees.
