“…In-soil zinc application is the principal method and a simple and effective solution for Zn supply in rice production systems (Naik &Das 2007 andGhasal et al, 2016). Zinc fertilizer had a decisive influence on rice growth features, e.g dry matter creation, leaf area indicator and yield traits, i.e.…”

“…The yield penalty due to Zn deficiency has been reported in several crops in Asian countries like India, Pakistan, and China, and Australia . In India, several studies suggested that Zn fertilization increases productivity and profitability of rice and other cereals . Among rice parts, Zn concentration decreased in the order bran > straw > husk > grain, indicating that brown rice are much denser in Zn than polished rice grain.…”

Intensive cultivation and introduction of input‐responsive high‐yielding varieties with application of major nutrients in rice–wheat rotation of Indo‐Gangetic plains (IGPs) lead to multiple nutrient deficiencies. A survey of Indian soils has shown that 40% are deficient in available zinc (Zn), 33% in sulfur (S), and 33% in boron (B). Studies have indicated that application of these nutrients with major nutrients can improve the crop productivity. Keeping the importance of aromatic rice in view, coated‐urea materials and their effects on rice yields, nitrogen (N), and Zn content in different parts and input economics are evaluated. Three field trials are conducted on aromatic rice to test boron‐coated urea (BCU), sulfur‐coated urea (SCU), and zinc‐coated urea (ZnCU) in 2013 and 2014. Results indicate that the highest yields are obtained with 0.5% BCU, 5.0% SCU, and 2.5% ZnCU as zinc sulfate heptahydrate. These treatments increase grain yield by 13%, 25%, and 17.9% over prilled urea (PU). Moreover, 0.5% BCU, 5% SCU, and 2.5% ZnCU register the highest N, S, and Zn contents in bran, husk, grain, and straw. Coated‐urea materials also improve use efficiencies and harvest index of N and Zn over PU. The findings of this study suggest that 0.5% boron, 5.0% sulfur, or 2.5% zinc‐coated urea show improvement in returns and benefit–cost ratio in aromatic rice of western IGPs.

“…The maximum CGR and total chlorophyll content were registered with the combined application of borax (7.5 kg ha -1 ) and zinc sulphate (12.5 kg ha -1 ) (Sarwar et al, 2013). Ghasal et al (2016) revealed that CGR, RGR and NAR was not significantly influenced by Zn fertilization, however, the highest values were recorded with soil application of Zn-EDTA @ 1.25 kg ha -1 + foliar spray of 0.5 per cent at maximum tillering and panicle initiation stage.…”

Micronutrients, though needed in smaller amounts, play a major role in the production and productivity of rice. Zn is the fourth most deficient nutrient element in Indian soils and its deficiency causes severe yield reduction in rice. Application of Zn either as foliar spray or soil application caused significant improvement in growth and yield attributes and yield of rice. Similar to that of Zn, B nutrition also caused significant improvement in growth and yield attributes and yield of rice. The review elaborates the effect of Zn and B nutrition on the growth, physiological parameters, yield attributes, yield and quality of rice.
