01.03.2017Lyne and Barak (2000) reviewed the evidence for depleted soils causing a reduction in the mineral content of food crops as suggested by comparison of USDA food composition data. They found that for three major cations: Ca 2+, Mg 2+, and K + of selected fresh produce crops, there was no real loss in the balance of mineral nutrition in food crops.

26.11.2013Analysis showed severe depletion in the mineral content of the vegetables (see Table). Perhaps the most concerning results relate to the mineral loss in two of the West's main vegetables, potatoes and carrots. The latter lost 75% of its magnesium content, 48% of its calcium, 46% of its iron and 75% of its copper, with similar losses in potatoes.
