Description
The relationship between boron and pollen viability is so intimate that all crops should receive a foliar application of boron prior to flowering.
Boron is the most leachable of all trace elements and consequently deficits are common. Boron is required as a calcium synergist and is very important in the early reproductive period of the crop cycle. Nutri-Key Boron Shuttle™ offers complexed boron in a balanced formulation which covers the full spectrum of background nutrition.
