Mineral biofortification using fertilizers like ZnSO4 can increase the yield and quality of food crops grown in poor soil conditions. Applying Zn to crops like rice and wheat through seed priming or foliar application can boost grain yield and Zn concentration, while reducing phytic acid levels. Integrating Zn with other substances does not affect its effectiveness in enriching grains and protecting crops from pests and diseases. Overall, these methods can help produce more nutritious food from soils that lack essential minerals, benefiting both animals and humans.
