Abstract
A long-term located experiment of application of zinc fertilizer is conducted to study the distribution of Zn in soil-crop system. The results show that zinc can be accumulated in soil after long term continuous application of zinc fertilizer, the available zinc concentration in soil is enhanced, which is higher than the critical value for ssess whether Zn deficiency is occured or not.High zinc concentrations in crops and different tissues are observed owing to continuous application of zinc, but their distributions are different. Zinc is accumulated in soil after a long term continuous application of zinc and zinc amount carried out by the crop is only 4.11% of the applied amount. So, it makes a potential risk for soil ecosystem.
