Role of Phosphorus : 

1. Structural component of cell membrane, mitochondria, chloroplast etc.
   
2. Constituent of nucleic acid.
   
3. Involved in photosynthesis, activation of several enzymes, energy transfer etc.
   
4. Required for root and shoot growth.
   
5. Gives aroma to the produce.
   

Role of Nitrogen :

1. Major structural constituent of cell and cell organelles.
   
2. Essential for metabolic active compounds like Amino Acids, Proteins, Enzymes and Vitamins.
   
3. Integral part of chlorophyll.
   
4. Needed for photosynthesis.
   
5. Essential for succulent produce.
   

Phosphorus Deficiency : 

1. Phosphorus is a structural component of plants body, Inadequate phosphorus causes less root and shoot development.
   
2. Loss of resistance, Plants become prone to disease attacks.
   
3. In some crops blue green appearance on tender parts are observed.
   
4. Poor root growth results in poor absorption of nutrients from the soil.
   
5. Delayed maturity, less flowering and fruit setting results lower yield.
   

Nitrogen Deficiency : 

1. Slow and stunted plant growth.
   
2. Older and lower leaves become yellow first, later the whole plant gives yellowish and sic appearance.
   
3. Loss of chlorophyll from the greener parts,
   
4. In severe deficiency the leaves turn brown and may die.
   
5. Heavy loss of yield.

Benefits of using MAP :

Dosage &  Application : 
Foliar application : Use 4-5 g/L of water
Fertigation: Use 1-3 kg/acre.

Note : 

1. For fertigation, number of application depends on crop.
2. Use dosage based on results of the soil analysis, crop and its growth stage.
3. Recommended for all Crops.
