Abstract
Zinc deficiency is major problem in cereal crops. Therefore, zinc agronomic fortification of wheat and other cereal crops is being urgently addressed and highly prioritized as a research topic. Increasing the zinc content of food crop resulting in better crop production is an important global challenge. An investigation was carried out to find out the influenced of zinc application on content of macro and micro nutrients in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). There were seven treatments of different levels of zinc was applied in this experiment generated using completely randomized design. The significantly highest macro and micro nutrients content were observed in the treatment of soil application of RDF + ZnSO₄ @ 30 kg ha^-1 at the time of sowing. It is concluded that the soil application of ZnSO₄ @ 30 Kg ha^-1 + RDF (80:40:40 kg ha^-1 N, P₂O₅, K₂O) at the time of sowing recorded highest wheat macro and micro nutrients content.
