Dear M.K. Dabi,

The crop rotation of wheat and maize is a particularly dominant cropping .Nutrient management on farmland plays an important role in crop production and environmental protection. However, the fertilizer decision-making process for many farmers is limited due to little understanding of soil nutrient status. This lack of understanding can lead to excessive or insufficient use of mineral fertilizer.To study the interaction effect of Zn and P in a wheat-maize cropping system, The concentration of Zn increased with the application of Zn and decreased with the application of P. The concentration of Zn was comparatively higher in grain than in straw of wheat and maize. The P concentration in wheat and maize plants decreased with the increasing levels of applied Zn. The concentrations of Zn were lower under limed than under unlimed condition, whereas the reverse was true for P concentrations.The respective absorption of Zn and P in wheat was 9.7 and 7.3 per cent upto tillering, 47.9 and 49.4 per cent between tillering and flowering, and 42.3 and 43.3 per cent between flowering and maturity. The corresponding absorption of Zn and P in maize was 11.7 and 9.4, 59.9 and 52.1, and 29.3 and 38.5 per cent before booting stage, between booting and tasseling stage and between tasseling and maturity stage, respectively. At maturity, about 53.1 and 13.0 per cent of the Zn and P taken up were retained by wheat straw and 46.9 and 87.0 per cent by wheat grain
