Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Soil plus foliar zinc methionine increased maize dry weight over all other treatments in both soil types.
- Intervention effect Soil and foliar application of both zinc sources significantly reduced iron, copper and manganese concentration in maize.
- Observation Treatment performance was better in lime-poor than lime-rich soil.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that soil plus foliar zinc methionine effectively improves maize dry matter and zinc enrichment in both soil types.
