WHO CAUSES IT?
A lack of water or irrigation causes a water deficit in plants, directly affecting their physiological processes such as photosynthesis, transpiration, and nutrient transport. When the soil does not have enough moisture, the roots cannot absorb the necessary water, leading to water stress. This situation is common during periods of drought, insufficient irrigation, or in soils with low water retention capacity. If it persists, it can seriously compromise the plant's growth and survival.
SYMPTOMS
Water stress initially affects the most exposed parts of the plant, those with the highest water demand, such as leaves and young shoots.
Typical symptoms:
• General wilting of the plant, especially during the hottest hours of the day.
• Dry, brittle, or curled leaves.
• Necrosis at the edges and tips of leaves (a "burned" appearance).
• Premature leaf, flower, or fruit drop.
• Reduced leaf and fruit size.
• Slow or stunted growth.
Progressive dehydration reduces metabolic activity and weakens the plant.
Stages of development:
• Initial: loss of turgor and slight wilting during the hottest hours of the day.
Intermediate stage: dry, curled leaves and organ drop.
Advanced stage: widespread necrosis and significant reduction in growth.
Final stage: complete desiccation and death of the plant if the condition is not corrected.
