When people think of India’s economy, many think of its exploding service and technology sectors. Yet for decades, agriculture has played a major role in India’s socioeconomic growth.
Boron deficiency can make it extremely difficult for a plant to grow to its full potential. Most plants are not able to remobilize boron from old to new tissue as with other nutrients, such as nitrogen. Understanding whether a nutrient is mobile or immobile in plants and the available solutions to correct boron deficiency can help you overcome this problem and enjoy a fruitful harvest.
Banana growing success is largely dependent on plant nutrition. Along with essential nutrients such as potassium (K) and nitrogen (N), proper levels of the micro-nutrient boron (B) can ensure larger, better-quality bunches.
Increasing global demand for dietary and industrial uses of corn is putting new pressures on corn growers to maximize their yields.
Palm oil is an edible vegetable oil extracted from the mesocarp (reddish pulp) of the oil palm fruit. The oil primarily comes from the African oil palm and to a lesser extent from American oil palm and maripa palm (
Attalea maripa).
Boron uptake is closely related to the boron concentration of the soil and the rate of water transpiration by rice plants. This means that rice plants can be particularly susceptible to boron toxicity.
Technology provides high-speed access to information about every topic and in every industry. People are learning to approach everything we do with more precise information. This evolution is especially true in agriculture. As agronomists and farmers tackle critical issues, they increasingly rely on advanced knowledge to inform their solutions.
Most soybeans are grown either in the United States or Brazil. Soybeans find their way into hundreds of edible products and numerous technical uses.
Boron for agricultural use is a stable market in North America, but it has more growth potential than most people realize. Boron deficiency is a common problem, and more and more research is being carried out that validates the importance of boron to every crop.
