ZnSO4. 7H2O at 60 kg should be applied to the soil before seeding in Corum; in the other states, foliar application of ZnSO4 gave better results. One rice quality factor is protein content. Zn had no effect on protein content. Milling recovery increased 67-70% in Corum, 61-66% in Ankara, and 58-62% in Edirne, regardless of Zn applications; the variation was not significant. The 1000-kernel wt also showed no difference. A common Zn deficiency exists in the rice production area of Corum. Farmers have recognized the problem, but thought it a disease, not a nutritional problem. Application of Zn will solve it.
