Boron Ethanolamine is a liquid fertilizer that is quickly absorbed and assimilated by the crop. Its application stimulates the growth of cambium tissues and apical meristem, promotes calcium mobility and assimilation
Boron is non-mobile in plants. Boron deficiency will retard new growth and will cause brittle leaves in some crops.
1. Sufficient boron improves the root uptake of P and K.
2. Sufficient boron is required for pollen production and viability of pollens. Deficiency of Boron can cause incomplete pollination of corn.
3. Grapes require adequate Boron to avoid impaired fertilization.
4. Cotton:
• Boron is one of the important micronutrients for cotton and is demanded in high amount. It is critical for boll development. Cotton is very susceptible to boron deficiency causing distorted flowers leading to shedding of flowers and bolls.
• Cotton needs Boron during all growth stages, especially during boll development. Boron helps cotton to develop fruiting sites, aids in pollination, boll retention and contributes to quality fibre. Unfortunately, boron is least available during this time, especially in non irrigated production.
• The foliar application should be made just before and during square development.

2 pH: 8.5±1
3 Specific Gravity: 1.3 -1.4
2 pH: 8.5±1

- Soils with low organic matter content.
- Dry soils with pH more than 6.5
- High potash in soil reduces the availability of boron.
- High light intensity and long day condition increase Boron deficiency.
Boron is an essential micronutrient required by all plants. Adequate B nutrition is critical for high yields and quality of crops. Deficiencies of B result in many anatomical, biochemical and physiological changes in plants.
- The main functions of boron relate to Cell wall strength and development: Boron is involved along with calcium (Ca) in the cell wall structure. Boron is involved in the movement of Ca into the plant and in normal Ca nutrition in plants
- Cell division: Boron is essential in the actively growing regions of plants, such as root tips, and new leaf and bud development.
- Fruit and seed development: The B requirement is much higher for reproductive growth than for vegetative growth in most plant species. Boron increases flower production and retention, pollen tube elongation and germination, and seed and fruit development
- Sugar transport: Boron increases the rate of transport of sugars (which are produced by photosynthesis in mature plant leaves) to actively growing regions and in developing fruits. Boron is essential for providing sugars which are needed for root growth in all plants and also for normal development of root nodules in legumes.
- Hormone development: Flower initiation, fruit development, cell wall and tissue formation, and root elongation are all influenced by hormones. Boron plays an important role in regulating hormone levels in plants
