The potential of tidal land and the availability of zinc nutrients to support increasing the productivity of rice plants

Abstract Tidal rice fields are a unique ecosystem and have great potential for rice production. However, the availability of micro-Zn on this land is often low, thus inhibiting rice growth and reducing crop yields. This paper reviews the potential and availability of tidal rice plants, as well as the factors that influence them. Zn deficiency is a widespread and common problem in rice plants, which results in reduced production and nutritional quality, which causes nutritional and health problems for humans, especially children. Considering this, it is necessary to carry out research to increase the productivity and Zn content of tidal rice by reducing the use of Zn solubilizing bacteria. The potential availability of Zn in low-lying areas can increase Zn uptake in rice plants through the use of Zn-solubilizing bacteria. The results of research on rice field soil rhizosphere samples isolated from the zinc-dissolving bacteria Serratia sp., Acinetobacter sp., and Burkholderia sp . exhibit plant growth-promoting properties such as nitrogen fixation ability, siderophore production, indole acetate production, phosphate solubilization, enzymatic hydrolysis, and organic acid production.
