Problem

Premature drying of plants

Nature:

Extreme dryness can be caused by a disruption of the water balance, so that the evaporation exceeds the absorption from the soil, or by overheating. In trees the leaves wither while retaining their green colour, in cereals the grains are undersized and wrinkled.
