“…This method allows 11% BY increase using only 2.3 kg Zn/ha. In turn, it can be concluded from the study conducted by Potarzycki et al (2015) that foliar application of Zn in corn is better than soil application of this component. However, the authors applied Zn in soil using traditional method, i.e., on soil surface.…”

“…For example, biofortification with this micronutrient increases its grain content in Phaseolus vulgaris by 74.6% and the antioxidant capacity by 60%, besides reducing its antinutrient content [10]. Increases in the zinc contents of the edible parts of Solanum tuberosum L. [17], Oryza sativa L. [18], Triticum aestivum L. [19], Zea mays L. [20], Allium cepa L. [21], and Carthamus tinctorius L. [22] have also been reported. In addition, a good response of cowpea to zinc fertilization has been reported in Mexico [5], Brazil [7], and Southern Africa [23].…”

Zinc intake deficiency is a public health problem and increasing the nutrient’s content in the edible parts of plants can help mitigate it. The objective of this work was to determine the effect of the edaphic and foliar application of zinc sulphate on the nutrient content, bioactive compounds, and antioxidant capacity of cowpea beans (Vigna unguiculata L. Walpers). A sample of 100 grains was taken, and the length, width, thickness, weight, ash content, fat, humidity, fibers, carbohydrates, protein, energy, macro- and micro- nutrients, total phenols, flavonoids, anthocyanins, and antioxidant capacity were determined. The 0.250 g edaphic-12.5 mM foliar dose produced grains of a greater weight and size. All of the edaphic and foliar doses increased the grain zinc content, and the highest value was found with the 0.125 g edaphic-50.0 mM foliar dose. The total phenols increased with 12.5 g of edaphic zinc, while phenols, flavonoids, and the antioxidant capacity increased with 50.0 mM foliar zinc. The edaphic and foliar application of zinc sulphate increased the grain weight and size, zinc content, total phenols, and antioxidant capacity. Therefore, edaphic and foliar zinc biofortification enriches this nutrient in cowpea grains, and could reduce micronutrient malnutrition in the urban and rural communities of Mexico.

“…Faujdar et al, (2014) documented an significant increase in grain yield and stover yield to a tune of 17.6 and 16.2 with application of 5 kg ha -1 of zinc compared to control treatment. Zinc application has significant effect in determining the yield potential of maize and gave higher number of grains cob -1 Potarzycki et al, (2015). documented that baby corn yield was increased with application of 10 kg Zn ha -1 to the tune of 12.8% than control treatment and also gave maximum green fodder yield which was 10.3%, higher over control.…”

Maize, referred as Queen of cereals is the third most important cereal crop after rice and wheat in India. Maize serves as both human food as well as animal feed and for. Productivity of maize can be increased by proper nutrient management practices. Maize is a zinc responsive crop and found deficient in soils. Zinc as an essential micronutrient that has significant role in basic plant metabolic processes and enhances the growth, yield and quality of maize by stimulating chlorophyll production, photosynthetic activity, nutrient uptake and protein biosynthesis. The zinc application to maize crop either by seed treatment, soil application or by foliar spray by using inorganics have shown significant impact on growth, yield, nutrient uptake, quality and economics from investigations of eminent researchers with increasing trend in productivity. Application of zinc at 20-25 kg ha-1 to maize gave maximum grain yield (7500 kg ha-1) and benefit cost ratio ( 2.4 ) in maize.
