Abstract
Zinc deficiency is the most common problem in paddy soils. Since the disorder was reported, it has become recognized as an important and widespread problem(l). In China, zinc deficiency is also found and it distributes mainly on calcareous paddy soil(2,3). However, the reported zinc dificiency is restricted to small areas. Systematic survey remains to be done. As a reconnaissance work, the status of zinc in paddy soils in China was investigated Its relation to growth of rice has been confirmed by field experiments.
Tang Li-hua, Jun-xiang and Yin Chu-liang also participated in this research.
