Background: Diversified food crop production systems with high‐value vegetable crops are increasingly replacing conventional rice–wheat rotations across Nepal. These newly emerging systems are likely to enhance the demand for the micro‐nutrients boron (B) and zinc (Zn), which are already widely deficient throughout in Nepal. However, B and Zn fertilizers often are either unavailable in rural areas, not available in a timely manner, or when available not affordable by smallholder farmers.

尼泊尔旱季作物施用硼和锌肥料对玉米后续作物生长的残留影响

背景：拥有高价值蔬菜作物的多样化粮食作物生产系统正逐渐取代尼泊尔全国传统的稻麦轮作。这些新出现的系统可能会增加对微量营养元素硼（B）和锌（Zn）的需求，而这些营养素在尼泊尔各地已经普遍缺乏。但是，硼和锌肥料通常要么在农村地区无法买到，无法及时获得，要么在小农无法负担的情况下获得。
