Soy (Mato Grosso, Brazil, Granubor)

Study details

  • Research institution: Nemabio
  • Date: 2022/2023 and 2023/20224 growing seasons
  • Location: Santa Carmem, Mato Grosso, Brazil
  • Soil: pH 4.9, no tillage clayey soil system (41% clay)
  • Fertilizer: Granubor ®
  • Trial design: The study was conducted in clayey soil, cultivated in the “safrinha” soybean-corn system for more than 15 years in a no-tillage soil system. Granubor was applied at the time of sowing.

Results

The results obtained allow us to conclude that applications of 2.0 and 1.5 kg/ha of boron via Granubor in the first and second crop season, provided higher soybean yields, with increases of 498 and 294 kg/ha compared to the control treatment, respectively.
