Micronutrient, zinc, deficiency affects one third population of world. Although it is not integral part like nitrogen, phosphorus and potash but recent arised deficiencies in soil, plants and of course in human beings ranged a bell of danger. Improper and imbalanced application of fertilizers, especially of N, P, and K lack of awareness among farmers about zinc and its application and prospects, are some major primary factors that prevent its application.
