Other claims from this paper (7)
- Intervention effect High ECiw irrigation water significantly reduced grain and straw yield of wheat.
- Intervention effect High ECiw increased sodium content in wheat.
- Intervention effect Zinc application to soil favorably affected grain and straw yield of wheat.
- Intervention effect Zinc significantly increased the contents of N, K and Zn in both grain and straw.
- Intervention effect Zinc significantly decreased phosphorus content in grain and straw.
- Intervention effect The reduction in grain and straw yield and in P and Zn contents caused by increasing saline irrigation was smaller at higher zinc sulphate doses.
- Recommendation The authors conclude that hazardous effects of saline water on wheat can be partly mitigated by applying zinc sulphate at 15 mg Zn per kg soil.
