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.

Boron plays an important role in rice growth including cell wall synthesis, cell membrane functions, root development, pollen tube germination, flower initiation, and seed production.
A practical guide to boron fertilization: Everything from boron in plant nutrition to diagnosing boron deficiency
Presentation on boron in South American South America, by Fabiano Silvestrin, MSc Principal Advisor, Global Market Development Agriculture U.S. Borax
Without enough boron, fruit and nut trees typically suffer dieback of branches, premature fruit drop, and poor nut or fruit development as well as cracked or misshapen fruit.
Research in vegetable nutrition and physiology has shown that boron is the key element in several plant growth processes affecting quality.
Boron is essential for all plant growth, including wheat and soybeans.
Plant uptake of boron is a passive (non-metabolic) process and boron is transported in the xylem vessels (transpiration stream) of all plant species. Therefore, boron is mobile in the xylem system of all plants.
Organic matter is the storehouse for most of the available boron in soils. Boron deficiencies in crops are found mainly in low organic matter soils and in acid, sandy soils in humid regions.
Unlike South American ulexites, Granubor refined borate fertilizer is specifically designed to release boron when crops need it the most. For corn, this means your crops receive boron at the critical V6-R1 phases.

A summary of U.S. Borax's agriculture product portfolio--Anhybor, Granubor, Fertibor, Liquibor, Optibor for ag, Solubor, Solubor Flow, and Zincubor.
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.
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.
