Product Description
Boron’s primary role in plants is to act as a key component in processes such as cell division, fertilization, seed set, cell wall formation and integrity, sugar transport and calcium uptake. Deficiency of boron in the soil and therefore in the plant results in abnormal growth such as apical shoot abnormalities and deformed leaves, stunted growth, poor fertilization and seed set, reduced yields and poor yield quality, especially in fruits and vegetables.
Active Ingridient
- Boron (21%)

COMPOSITION AND DESCRIPTION
SOLUBOR is a highly soluble borate fertilizer for soil and foliar application to correct boron deficiencies in a wide range of crops. It contains boron, one of the seven essential elemental plant micronutrients for good crop yields and quality even when all the other nutrients are present in the right quantities.
