Abstract:This article will introduce in detail the important role of boron fertilizer in plant growth, as well as the dosage, function and use of boron fertilizer. By understanding the properties of boron fertilizer and how to use it correctly, you will be able to promote the growth of your crops more effectively, improving yields and quality.
I. Introduction. Boron is one of the indispensable trace elements for the normal growth and development of plants, and boron fertilizer, as an important means of supplementing boron, plays an important role in agricultural production. This article will analyze the dosage, function and use of boron fertilizer, and help you easily master the use of boron fertilizer.
Second, the role of boron fertilizer.
Promotes cell wall formation: Boron is involved in the formation of plant cell walls and helps to improve the stability and strength of cell walls.
Promote sugar transport: Boron can promote the transport and distribution of sugars in plants, improving the efficiency of photosynthesis.
Promote pollen germination and pollen tube growth: Boron plays a key role in plant reproduction and growth, which can promote pollen germination and pollen tube growth, and improve seed setting rate.
Improve stress resistance: Appropriate application of boron fertilizer can improve the resistance of plants to adversities such as drought, high temperature and low temperature.
3. The dosage of boron fertilizer.
The amount of boron fertilizer used varies depending on factors such as crop type, soil conditions, fertilization method, etc. Generally speaking, the amount of boron fertilizer per mu of land is 0Between 5-2 kg. Please refer to the recommendations of your local agricultural technology extension department for specific dosages.
Fourth, the use of boron fertilizer.
Basal fertilizer application: Before sowing or transplanting, boron fertilizer is evenly spread on the soil surface and then ploughed into the soil.
Top dressing: In the process of crop growth, top dressing should be carried out in a timely manner according to the boron requirement of the crop and the boron content of the soil. Boron fertilizer can be dissolved in water and sprayed on the foliar surface, or applied with water through irrigation systems.
5. Precautions.
Avoid overapplication: Although boron plays an important role in plant growth, overapplication of boron fertilizer can lead to boron poisoning, affecting crop growth. Therefore, when using boron fertilizer, it is important to apply it according to the recommended dosage.
Adjust the amount according to soil conditions: Different soil types and boron content can affect how well boron is used. Before use, it is recommended to test the boron content of the soil and adjust the amount of boron fertilizer according to the test results.
Use in combination with other fertilizers: Boron fertilizers can be used in combination with other fertilizers such as nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, etc., to meet the overall nutritional needs of crops. However, please note that boron fertilizer should not be mixed with alkaline fertilizer to avoid reducing fertilizer efficiency.
Pay attention to the fertilization period: The fertilization period of boron fertilizer should be determined according to the growth stage of the crop and the peak boron demand. In general, boron fertilizer is better applied around the peak growth and reproductive periods of crops.
Storage precautions: Boron fertilizer should be stored in a dry, ventilated and dark place, avoiding contact with moisture and acidic substances. At the same time, care should be taken to prevent children from touching and ingesting by mistake.
6. Summary. 
Through the introduction of this article, you should have a deeper understanding of the role, dosage and use of boron fertilizer. In actual agricultural production, boron fertilizer should be applied reasonably according to crop types, soil conditions and other factors to promote the healthy growth of crops and improve yield and quality. At the same time, it is also necessary to pay attention to the safety and environmental protection in the fertilization process to ensure the sustainable development of agricultural production.
