We introduce the notions of nilpotent element, quasi-regular element in a semiring which is a distributive lattice of rings. The concept of Jacobson radical is introduced for this kind of semirings.

In this paper, we define and study the semiprimary k-fuzzy ideals in a commutative k-semiring and characterize the quotient semiring R/A of a k-semiring R by a semiprimary k-fuzzy ideal A. In particular, we show that every zero divisor of R/A is nilpotent.

In this article, we generalize a well-known result of Hebisch and Weinert that states that a finite semidomain is either zerosumfree or a ring. Specifically, we show that the class of commutative semirings S such that S has nonzero characteristic and every zero-divisor of S is nilpotent can be partitioned into zerosumfree semirings and rings. In addition, we demonstrate that if S is a finite commutative semiring such that the set of zero-divisors of S forms a subtractive ideal of S, then either every zero-sum of S is nilpotent or S must be a ring. An example is given to establish the existence of semirings in this latter category with both nontrivial zero-sums and zero-divisors that are not nilpotent.

In this paper, we investigate and characterize the class of A-semirings. A characterization of the Thierrin radical of a proper ideal of an A-semiring is given. Moreover, when P is a Q-ideal in the semiring R, it is shown that P is primary if and only if R/P is nilpotent.
