Agriculture needs to become increasingly efficient to feed a growing population. As an essential element for crop growth, boron has a vital role to play.

An organic product used to make liquid boron fertilizer for use in foliar application and fertigation.
U.S. Borax is committed to supporting growers, agronomists, and distributors in Latin America, using high-quality, refined borates and expert agricultural education and advice.
Peanuts require boron, especially during the pod development stage, or “hollow heart” may occur, possibly reducing quality and yields. Read more about how Solubor and Granubor can help ensure adequate boron supply.

Research in California has shown that foliar applications of Solubor increased pistachio yields. The best time for foliar application is from the late dormant to the early bud stages. Soil applications of boron are not as effective as foliar applications in supplying sufficient boron for flowering.
Plant analysis is a valuable tool in determining the general nutritional status of crops during the growing season. Accurate data requires careful collection and handling of tissue samples. Knowledge of the normal boron sufficiency range in a given crop helps interpret the results and diagnose possible boron deficiency.

A summary of U.S. Borax's agriculture product portfolio--Anhybor, Granubor, Fertibor, Liquibor, Optibor for ag, Solubor, Solubor Flow, and Zincubor.
Not all boron sources are created equal. At U.S. Borax, our products are fully refined to remove impurities and maximize potential plant uptake.
Solubor is manufactured to combine the highest concentration of boron with the maximum possible dispersion and solubility in water. It has a number of different uses in agro-industrial markets, in addition to its long established role in farm sprays.
