Description Crop productivity in the rainfed semi arid tropics (SAT) of India is low due to water shortage and
poor fertility status of the soils. Earlier research have shown that SAT soils are critically deficient in
Zn, B and S in addition to N and P (Sahrawat et al., 2008; Wani et. al. 2009). For a sustainable
increase in productivity and enhancing the resilience in rainfed systems, the issues related to soil
fertility needs to be addressed. The objective of this communication is to show as to how balanced
nutrition involving Zn, B and S can be used to enhance crop productivity on sustainable basis in the
semi‐arid regions of India....
