Boron in Plant Life

People didn't know about mineral nutrients when they first started growing crops more than 10,000 years ago. In fact, it has only been in the last 75 years that scientists and farmers discovered the seven essential micronutrients that plants need to grow, boron among them.

Boron performs at the cellular level, and is integral to a plant's reproductive cycle; controlling flowering, pollen production, germination, and seed and fruit development. The mineral also acts as a fuel pump, aiding the transmission of sugars from older leaves to new growth areas and root systems.
