I find these marks on my okra leaves.

Is this mosaic disease? If not what is this? And please suggest organic remedies

Could you please verify if there are any mite on the leaves? if there are no mites, it is magnesium deficiency, as mentioned by Venkat Pawar.

Thanks sur Mahadevaiah N . Have applied compost and am searching for epsom salts. As someone told me epsom salts are rich in magnesium. I also read that groundnut oil cake is also a good source of magnesium. Kindly advise. Copying Venkat Pawar. Manejebem | Carol

Great discuss Venkat Pawar. Tsr Kumar Mahadevaiah N Manejebem | Carol Magnesium is nowadays very common and essential micronutrient because most of the crop suffer from it's deficiency. There's is huge availability of magnesium sulphate heptahydrate 21% in the pesticide store and farmers are advised to use in all the crops during land preparations. Thank you for the warm discussion!!
