摘要: Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the main foods globally. Nutrition problems associated with Zinc and Iron deficiency affect more than two billion individuals. Biofortification a strategy believed to be sustainable, economical easily implemented. This study evaluated effect combined Zn Fe applied as foliar fertilizer winter wheat on grain yield, quality, concentration in grains. Results showed that treatments containing high increased yield. Grain crude fat content remained unaffected. Crude fiber was enhanced up three-fold by 60% + 40% Fe5.5 (5.5 kg ha−1 Fe). Moreover, 80% 20% Fe) best combination for increasing protein. alone grain. In addition, slightly improved an application first year, but greater increase observed second where 100% Fe13 (13 improving Foliar practical approach concentration, improve quality
