Zinc helps fruit plants in healthy leaf growth, enzyme activity, chlorophyll formation, flowering, fruit set, and normal plant development. Although plants need zinc in small amounts, its role in plant health is very important.

Common signs include yellow leaves with green veins, small leaves, short shoots, stunted growth, poor flowering, and weak fruit set. Zinc deficiency is usually more visible on young leaves and new shoots.
