Addressing the nutrient needs of dragon fruit across South America takes dedicated effort since soil conditions vary greatly across the region. It’s easy for micronutrient deficiencies to limit the growth of a dragon fruit crop.
Boron is an essential element required for all plant nutrition. Boron deficiency can cause many anatomical, biochemical, and physiological changes in crops. Adequate boron in plant nutrition is critical for achieving high yield and quality of crops. As corn is the most widely distributed and productive cereal crop among all cereal grain crops in the world. Learn about the importance of boron for mineral nutrition in corn cultivation.
Brazil, renowned for its thriving cotton industry, faces a pressing challenge that can impact crop yields and profitability: Boron deficiency. To equip farmers with valuable tools for combating this issue, the Cotton App empowers cotton farmers across Brazil.
Scientific research over the years has studied the patterns of absorption, partitioning, and remobilization of nutrients in soybean cultivation. In recent years, studies have shown that the potential for nutrient accumulation—including boron—has increased significantly due to current high productivity levels.
The role of pulses in India's economy is integral to its food security. Boron is an essential micronutrient required for the growth and development of plants and boron deficiency in soil can lead to reduced crop yields and poor-quality produce.
Agriculture plays a significant role in many Asian economies, including China—one of the world's largest agricultural countries. The agriculture industry in China continuously searches for ways to increase crop yields to meet the growing demand for food at home and commodity crops abroad.
Boron (B) deficiency has been identified as the most common nutritional disorder in oil palm plantations around the world, and it is intensified in regions with alkaline, sandy soils and subject to high volumes of rainfall.
Boron deficiency is a serious issue that can affect the yield and quality of commodity crops. Without adequate boron, plants are unable to complete their life cycle. But what does a deficiency look like and why is it so important for plant growth? Causes and effects of boron deficiency, and the best ways to address it, are different in every crop.
One element that plays an important role in corn plant nutrition, but is often overlooked, is boron. Learn more about why boron is such an important micronutrient and how you can apply it to your crop.
As demand for palm oil continues to rise, and the option to grow more palm may seem obvious. Yet, the more sustainable answer is to increase the output and efficiency.
