Answer:
Drought can cause nutrient deficiencies, even in fertilised soils, due the reduced mobility and absorbance of individual nutrients, leading to a lower rate of mineral diffusion from the soil matrix to the roots.Thus, drought is doubtlessly the most important stress factor limiting plant life.
