Description
Dimitriadi and colleagues test spray mixes that load durum wheat grain with trace minerals in twenty twenty-five. Wheat is low in zinc, iron, and other minerals people need. Spraying leaves with mineral salts plus sulfur rich boosters may lift grain levels. A two year field trial varied the mineral, the booster, and spray aids.
Many mixes raised the grain's total mineral load. Zinc and iron often rose while manganese and copper fell. One booster raised the total by about a third. Spray aids helped in most cases. Effects swung with the mineral paired and the aid used. The team maps which combos help and which clash in the grain.
