AGRISOL B 11
AGRISOL B 11 (Boron 11%) standard borate commonly used for direct soil application, foliar spray or blending with bulk / liquid fertilizers & micronutrient mixtures.
AGRISOL B 11 S (Boron 11%) standard granular borate used for direct soil application or blending with bulk granulated fertilizers.
Application
AGRISOL B 11 is the refined form of natural sodium borate.
AGRISOL B 11 is mainly composed of boric oxide (B2O3), sodium oxide and water. It is a mild, alkaline salt, white and crystalline, with excellent buffering and fluxing properties. When dissolved in water, it hydrolyzes to give a mildly alkaline solution, thus capable of neutralizing acidic soils.
AGRISOL B 11 is used as a source of micronutrient B and can be blended with commonly used bulk / liquid fertilizers & micronutrient mixtures for Soil application or Foliar Spray.
Dosage
Boron - An Essential Plant Micronutrient
Boron is an essential nutrient required for all plant growth and must remain available for plant uptake during the growth period.
Boron plays an important role in
Sugar transport
Cell wall synthesis
Lignification
Cell wall structure
Carbohydrate metabolism
RNA metabolism
Respiration
Membranes
Root growth
Pollination
Technical Specifications
Plants require 13 mineral nutrient elements for growth. The elements that are required or necessary for plants to complete their life cycle are called essential plant nutrients. Each of these nutrients has a critical function in plants and are required in varying amounts in plant tissue.
Macronutrients like Nitrogen (N), Phosphorus (P), Potassium (K), Calcium (Ca), Magnesium (Mg) and Sulfur (S) are plant nutrients required in the largest amount in plants. Micronutrients like Zinc (Zn), Boron (B), Iron (Fe), Copper (Cu), Manganese (Mn) molybdenum (Mo) and Chlorine (Cl) etc are required in relatively smaller amounts.
