Other claims from this paper (4)
- Association DTPA-extractable Zn in Tarai soils was significantly correlated with percent yield values for rice and wheat.
- Observation The critical limit of available Zn for rice and wheat response to applied Zn was 0–53 mg Zn/kg soil.
- Observation Crop response to applied zinc was 39–244% in rice (mean 117%), greater than in wheat.
- Observation Crop response to applied zinc was 33–101% in wheat (mean 60%).
