Hello,
I did a leaf analysis on one of my trees, a honey crisp, and it showed a need for Nitrogen, Mag, and Zinc. I addressed the Mag. with epson salts. The nitrogen is low and I know it and don't plan on adding much....
But, how do you add Zinc to your soil? need to add it to about 50 trees.

Trees are located in Umatilla, OR
Nitrogen can be added by supplying urea. Perhaps you can think of a convenient way to do this.
Zinc is a trace mineral. Some people assure trace minerals by making sure that their full soil food web is active. Mushrooms can also set up a wide ranging mycelium that gathers trace minerals from afar.

PDX OR
You could try a zinc foliar spray.
