Solubor 500g

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.

CROP	EFFECFTS OF BORON DEFICIENCY	RECOMMENDATION
CROP	EFFECFTS OF BORON DEFICIENCY	Soil application	Foliar application
Roses	Leaves distorted-elongated with irregular serration lossof apical dominance leading to multiple branching petals with serrated margins and show irregular pigmentation.	-Depend on soil analysis	Routine foliar sprays, 2-3kg/ha
Chrysanthemum	Brittle anddown curled leaves Tips pale green and turning upwards Petals become quilled or fail to unroll properly	-Depend on soil analysis	Routine foliar sprays, 2-3kg/ha

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.

Boron's primary role in plants is to act as a key component in cell division, fertilization and 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 seedset, reduced yields and poor yield quality especially in fruits and vegetables.

CROP	EFFECFTS OF BORON DEFICIENCY	RECOMMENDATION
CROP	EFFECFTS OF BORON DEFICIENCY	Soil application	Foliar application
Coffee	die back/death of growing points flower abortion/berry drop loss of yield		2-3kg/ha(40-60gm/20L of water for 20-25 trees-Two applications per year, before initiation of flowering.
Brassicas	browning of thecurd cracking of leaves breakdown of pith reduced quality of harvest	5-10 kg/ha in 200 litresof water	5-lOkg/ha in 200 litres of water
Maize	Poor filling of the cob deformed cobs reduced yields (bothquality and quantity)	- 0-15%clay 4kg/ha, 16-30% clay 8kg/ha ->30% clay l0kg/ha	l-2kg/ha-apply between 8 leaf stage and silking
Carrots	skin blemishes skin roughening with darkening of the flesh "five o'clock shadow" splitting of the roots reduced marketable yield	4-6kg/ha in 200litres of water	4-6kg/ha in 500 litresof water
Other vegetables_ eg-french beans, tomatoes	Flower abortion - reduced yields-poor quality of produce		2-3kg/ha (40-60gm/20lites of water. Apply prior to flowering
Fruits	Dieback and deathof growing points Flower abortion Fruit drop Reduced yields		2-3 kg/ha(40-60 gm/20 L waterApply beforeflowering and fruit set.
Flowers/ carnation	reduced internode length increased calyx splitting pale yellow zonealong the midribs which later turns purple. Failure of flower buds to reach anthesis		Apply after leafanalysis adequate levels shouldbe 25-l00ppm
