Round 1
Reviewer 1 Report
This study provided a study on zinc foliage fertilizer on absorption of Cd, pb and Zinc in Rice (Oryza sativa L.) in Cd and Pb combined polluted farmland. Although many studied have been reported on Si foliage fertilizer on cadmium, fewer studied were conducted with a field trial on the chromium and Plumbum combined pollution . However, there are many flaws in this MS. At present, it should be not accepted before the authors corrected them.

Reviewer 2 Report
Reviewed manuscript “Effect of Leaf Surface Regulation of Zinc Fertilizer on Absorp-
tion of Cadmium, Plumbum and Zinc in Rice (Oryza sativa L.)” is an original and interesting study. Authors comprehensively demonstrated the application effect of Zinc Fertilizer on Absorp-tion of Cadmium, Plumbum and Zinc in Rice (Oryza sativa L.). Study is very interesting and it would add scientific contribution in literature. Authors collected lot of data with strong reasoning. I would suggest minor revision.
Following are some suggestions for further improvements:
First few lines of the abstract should be about the importance of study.
Lines 45-50: Consider revising the lines.
Revise the reference style 3 at line 52.
Lines 80-82: Consider revising the lines.
Lines 118-127: Consider revising the lines.
Quality of figures is very low. It should be uniform in style.
Introduction and Discussion section needs to further strengthen by latest studies on the subject. Improve the discussion section. Please summarize the conclusion section which is very large.
At some places in the text, there are grammatical mistakes that need to be corrected by some native English colleague.
To further strengthen introduction, following latest studies etc. are suggested to cite for the application effect of Zinc Fertilizer on Absorp-tion of Cadmium, Plumbum, Zinc and other heavy metals in agronomic crops.
