Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect Foliar zinc with pesticides improved whole grain and milling fraction zinc concentration as effectively as foliar zinc alone.
- Intervention effect Combined foliar zinc and pesticides did not increase grain phytic acid concentration.
- Intervention effect Combined foliar zinc and pesticides raised estimated zinc bioavailability in flour by 79.2%.
- Intervention effect Combined foliar zinc and pesticides raised estimated zinc bioavailability in bran by 95.4%.
- Intervention effect Combined foliar zinc and pesticides raised estimated zinc bioavailability in grain by 94.5%.
- Intervention effect Foliar zinc at milk stage produced higher whole grain zinc concentration and bioavailability than application at flowering.
- Recommendation The authors recommend applying foliar zinc with commonly used pesticides, especially at milk stage, to enrich grain and flour zinc.
