The invention discloses a method for cultivation of rice in a rich-zinc formula. A disease-resistant variety and four special rice varieties, including giant embryo rice, black rice, glutinous rice and red rice, similar in growth period and different in plant height are adopted as hybrid cultivation varieties. By a rich-zinc cultivation method in which controlled-release zinc fertilizers are placed at a water inlet, produced rice in the rich-zinc formula is high in zinc content, and functional rich-zinc formulated rice can be obtained without adoption of a mixing formula for rice harvested ina maturation stage and are rich in functional components including zinc, GABA, vitamins, minerals, anthocyanidin, carotene, cardiac glycoside and the like, low in amylose content, soft, glutinous anddelicious in taste and high in market price, so that peasants can obtain high planting economic benefits. Mixed planting of different varieties makes full use of height differences of different rice varieties, light, heat and fertilizer resources can be fully coordinated, biodiversity is realized, disease and pest resistance is improved, pesticide consumption is reduced, and rice and soil contamination is abated.
