e0“In a 2-year field study, the influence of zinc sulfate and Zn-EDTA, at 2 kg Zn ha−1, was studied in 20 confectionery peanut cultivars where both of these Zn sources increased yield attributes, 100-seed weight, and Zn, P, and K concentrations in seed”
e1“The respective mean concentrations of Zn, P, and K in the seed were 43 mg kg−1 and 0.61% and 0.75% in control which increased to 50 mg kg−1 and 0.62% and 0.76%, with the application of zinc sulfate and 46 mg kg−1 and 0.63% and 0.82%, respectively, with the application of Zn-EDTA”
