Study of the nutritional status of crops as evidenced by plant analysis was begun as early as 1804. Recently efforts have been made by a number of workers to establish, by study of data on yields and the levels of different nutrients in specific plant parts, the response of these plants to applications of fertilizer. Further work has suggested the possibility of using the level of a leaf constituent at a specific physiological stage as a criterion of the state of supply of certain elements.
