Conteúdo: 	I believe that the goals of this Symposium, as stated in the Preface to these Proceedings, were completely fulfilled. This is directly attributable to the enthusiasm and dedication of the many authors and participants. All papers, both oral and poster, were presented in a timely and effective way. In addition, the accompanying discussions were very stimulating. Another major contributor to the success of the Symposium was the continuous effort made by all members of the organizing committee over the eighteen-month period preceeding the Symposium. I would like to express my appreciation to all whi made this Symposium a success. I consider myself fortunate for having had the opportunity to be here. The objectives established for this Symposium were, of course, like those of the first International Iron Symposium held at Brigham Young University in 1981. That the goals were then achieved is evidenced by the fact that there were here explicit cross-disciplinary references to the first Symposium. I firmly believe that the foundation has been laid in the activities of the 1981 and 1983 Symposia for a continuous inter-disciplinary communication that will ultimately lead to successes in the understanding and control of iron in plants and soils that could be achieved in no other way. There are many intricate and complex relationships that affect iron uptake and utilization by plants. These factors, which have been detailed elsewhere and restated in this Symposium in various ways, include many external factors in the plant's chemical and physical environment and also internal plant factors related to nutrient element balance. The major issue associated with these complex interactions is the need to separate cause and effect as these relate to iron composition and function in plants. It appears to me that heretofore treatment of iron chlorosis has, like the common cold, mostly been the tratment of symptoms. For this reason I have listened carefully during this Symposium for information on specific causes of iron chlorosis which would guide us toward treatment of the causes and not just treatment of the effects of poor iron uptake and utilization by plants.
