When and How to use Zinc in wheat crop || Crop Reformer

Zinc has become very important micronutrient element in wheat growth and production. It performs its character in making better use of all macronutrients present in soil or artificially added as crop supplements for normal growth and more production. Different 27% formulations of Zinc sulphate are commonly broadcasted @ 3 kg/acre along with nitrogenous fertilizer at the time of 1st irrigation in wheat. Only 5 % or less amount of zinc sulphate becomes available to the crop. In this video, we have recommended the use of chelated zinc (Liberal zinc-Engro or Headland zinc 15%-Swat agro) for its better usage than zinc sulphate. It has been stressed that either of the Liberal zinc -Engro or Headland zinc 15%-Swat agro may be flooded @ 500 gram at the time of 1st irrigation or sprayed @ 250 gram/acre along with herbicides after the 1st irrigation. These small nutrients play a crucial role and have a status of important player in getting higher yield of wheat crop. It is essential for activation of the process of making amino acids and other vital components that are formed from different added fertilizers like dap fertilizer (diammonium phosphate, diammonium phosphate fertilizer, urea and diammonium phosphate) and SOP (sulphate of potash, potassium sulfate fertilizer, potassium sulphate fertilizer, sulphate of potash fertilizer) etc.
