Abstract:Zinc deficiency in human nutrition is widespread in developing Asian and African countries where cereal grains are the staple food. Agronomic biofortification of Zn is a new innovative approach to get rid of Zn malnutrition from the poorest of the poor rural masses, who will never have money to buy mineral supplements nor can afford to improve the components of their diet by incorporating animal products. Hence, a field experiment was conducted during 2010 and 2011 on a sandy clay-loam soil (typic Ustochrept) … Show more
“…The similarity of soluble Zn sources and chelates in nutrition and maize production was also observed in another grass, the rice that is demanding in the micronutrient as indicated by Shivay et al (2016).…”

“…Despite the differences between the salts and chelates, studies show that these can present similar agronomic efficiencies in different cultures' growth and production (McBeath and McLaughlin 2014;Shivay et al, 2016).…”

“…Reports indicate that the 1000-grain weight was not affected by different concentrations of silicon (Yazdpour et al, 2014a), which is consistent with the results of the present research. In contrast, a piece of research showed that the zinc application from different sources had a significant effect on thousand grain weight of rice (Shivay et al, 2016).…”

“…All Zn treatments for agronomic biofortification of Zn in corn grain as well as in stover were in the following order: 5 kg soil + 1 kg foliar ˃ 1 kg foliar ˃ 2.83 kg as Zn-coated urea to soil ˃ 5 kg soil. Shivay et al, (2015) reported that soil application of ZnSHH or Zn-EDTA significantly increased the Zn concentration in grain of rice crop over NPK fertilization, which were at par with two or three applications of 0.2% solutions of ZnSHH or Zn-EDTA or one or two applications of 0.5% solutions of ZnSHH or Zn-EDTA.…”
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
