2008-02-01
Abstract excerpt
Zinc (Zn) deficiency is prevalent worldwide and is a barrier to achieving yield goals in crops. It is also now recognized as a leading risk factor for disease in humans in developing countries. In general, soil application of 5-17 kg of Zn ha-¹ year-¹ as zinc sulphate (ZnSO₄) or more is recommended. However, in developing rice growing countries of Asia, ZnSO₄ of desired quality is not readily available and is also...
