6 extractive question-and-answer pairs built from Agronomic zinc biofortification of potato (Solanum tuberosum) through soil and foliar zinc sulphate application in Rajasthan | The Indian Journal of Agricultural Sciences, published by epubs.icar.org.in. Source-evidenced topics include agronomic zinc biofortification, potato, solanum tuberosum, soil application, foliar application, zinc sulphate, rajasthan, znso4. Every answer is a verbatim span of text the source prints, and each row carries the passage it sits in, its offset in that passage, the source quote, the page and the location in the document, so any row can be checked against the original. Question types in the export: 2 relationship, 2 summary, 1 factual, 1 list. 5 of the 6 pairs (83.3%) ask explanatory questions; the remaining 1 are factual or table-based questions. 100.00% of rows pass the corpus quality gate.
This dataset contains six question-and-answer pairs derived from a study on agronomic zinc biofortification of potatoes conducted at the Agricultural Research Station, Kota, Rajasthan during the rabi seasons of 2020–21 and 2021–22. The study evaluated the effects of soil and foliar zinc sulphate applications on tuber yield, zinc content, and productivity. It highlights the importance of combined zinc application methods for sustainable and cost-effective potato production. The dataset includes explanatory, factual, and list-based questions, with answers sourced directly from the study's findings.

| Under which treatment was a significantly higher tuber zinc content observed? | soil application of ZnSO4@12.5 kg/ha at planting + 0.2% foliar application of ZnSO4at 25 and 50 days after planting (DAP) | An experiment was conducted during winter (rabi) seasons of 2020–21 and 2021–22 at Agricultural Research Station, Kota, Rajasthan to assess agronomical biofortification of potato (Solanum tuberosumL.) through soil and foliar zinc sulphate application The experiment consisted of 7 treatment combination of soil and foliar applications in a randomized block design with 4 replications. The results revealed that the application of ZnSO4@2.5 kg/ha at the time of planting and foliar application of zinc sulphate @0.2% at 25 and 50 DAP (T7) gave significantly higher total tuber yield, and number of tubers. A significantly higher tuber zinc content was observed under treatment T7, where soil application of ZnSO4@12.5 kg/ha at planting + 0.2% foliar application of ZnSO4at 25 and 50 days after planting (DAP) compared to control, indicating more Zn accumulation. | 686 | relationship | 0.970 | https://epubs.icar.org.in/index.php/IJAgS/article/view/141924 | A significantly higher tuber zinc content was observed under treatment T7, where soil application of ZnSO4@12.5 kg/ha at planting + 0.2% foliar application of ZnSO4at 25 and 50 days after planting (DAP) compared to control, indicating more Zn accumulation. | p[0] | 0.700 | valid | |

| What does the experiment highlight about zinc sulphate application in potato production? | importance of soil and foliar zinc sulphate application for improved tuber yield and zinc fortification in a sustainable and cost-effective manner | The benefit-cost analysis of tuber production under different basal soil application levels and foliar application revealed highest benefit-cost ratio of 2.59 with treatment T7followed by T6(2.39) and T3(2.35). The apparent recovery efficiency and partial factor productivity were also higher with combined application of ZnSO4through soil as well as foliar application.
