Iron deficiency in Apricots

Symptoms
Fe deficiency leads to charactaristic chlorotic yellowing, and sometimes bleaching, of new leaf growth. The severity of the chlorosis increases towards the youngest leaves at the shoot tip. Under severe deficiencies, leaves scorch.

Causes
Iron deficiency Problems are more common on high pH calcareous soils, rich in Ca and Mg carbonates, or where soils are waterlogged. Peaches are the most susceptible of the stone fruit crops to iron deficiency, followed by plums, apricots and then cherries.
