Abstract

Background and aims Human zinc (Zn) deficiency is prevalent in developing countries and Zn biofortification of grains is used to increase the Zn content of food staples. Agronomic interventions to biofortify grain involve fertiliser selection and management. The usefulness of a zinc compound as a fertiliser will depend on its solubility, bioavailability and the effect of its distribution in the soil profile.
