- Intervention effect Fe and Zn fertilizer interaction significantly affected wheat yield indices.
- Intervention effect Fe and Zn fertilizer interaction significantly affected Fe and Zn concentrations in wheat shoots and grain.
- Intervention effect 120 kg Zn ha−1 plus 5 kg Fe ha−1 improved thousand kernel weight by 9.1% over control.
- Intervention effect 120 kg Zn ha−1 plus 5 kg Fe ha−1 improved grain yield by 23.4% over control.
- Observation Wheat shoot Zn concentration at tillering was 37.0–58.2 mg Zn kg−1, higher than at later stages.
