About this topic
This topic covers the categorisation of essential plant nutrients (macronutrients and micronutrients) and their roles in plant growth. Understanding what plants need to grow is fundamental to agriculture, a key sector in Zambia. It provides the foundation for later topics on photosynthesis, soil fertility, and plant nutrition in the ECZ syllabus. This knowledge helps learners appreciate the biological basis of farming and food production.
