Other claims from this paper (9)
- Intervention effect Foliar Zn(Gly)2 increased grain Zn concentration by 150% under single wheat plantation.
- Intervention effect Foliar ZnSO4 was similar to Zn(Gly)2 in increasing grain Zn.
- Intervention effect Adding urea to foliar ZnSO4 or Zn(Gly)2 further increased grain Zn concentration under reduced soil N rates.
- Intervention effect Grain Zn bioavailability increased as soil N rates were reduced.
- Intervention effect Grain Zn bioavailability decreased after foliar Zn fertilizer application.
- Intervention effect Foliar fertilization significantly increased grain protein, Fe and Mn concentrations.
- Intervention effect The increases in protein, Fe and Mn were greater with Zn(Gly)2 alone or ZnSO4 plus urea.
- Intervention effect Simultaneous foliar ZnSO4 and urea slightly increased farmers’ net income.
- Recommendation Foliar ZnSO4 plus urea is suggested as an efficient and economical strategy to raise wheat grain Zn concentration and bioavailability under reduced soil N, and consequently minimize human Zn deficiency.
