Features & Benefits

General Information

WARNING: Contains Boron. Do not use on plants sensitive to Boron. The use of this product on any crop(s) other than those recommended may result in serious injury to the crop(s).

BEAU-RON D soluble borate is for fluid fertilizer nutrient spray and dusts. The total amount of this product applied over the growing season should not exceed the total recommended for your area (typically between 1 to 2 pounds elemental boron per acre). Boron deficiency symptoms can usually be corrected in most crops in 10 to 14 days. Do not exceed one-half pound of elemental boron per acre per application.

Applications & Uses

Application Technique
Direction For Use

This product is recommended for aerial, concentrate and dilute application to field, vegetable, tree and nut crops. Rates and timing of applications are dependent on local conditions and should be made only in conjunction with the recommendation of the Local authority. Soil and/or plant tissue analysis should be obtained and the results used as a guide. Thorough coverage of this product is necessary for best results and sufficient water should be used to assure uniform application.

SOIL APPLICATION: This product can be sprayed directly on the soil with a boom sprayer if a soil application of boron is desired. Application rates are the same as for a foliar spray.

FOLIAR SPRAYS AND DUSTS: Foliar fertilization is intended as a supplement to a regular fertilization program and may not, by itself, provide all the nutrients normally required by crops or other intended plants. This product applied to the foliage of growing plants at rates of 4.8 to 9.6 pounds per acre, will correct boron deficiency in most crops. It is compatible with most insecticides and fungicides and can be included in many established applications being made for the control of insects and fungus diseases. Spray applications may be made with either concentrate or high volume sprayers.

LIQUID FERTILIZERS: This product is readily soluble in water and makes an efficient borate additive for most liquid fertilizers. It is superior to borax as it is more readily soluble and causes minimum changes in crystallization temperatures.

NOTE: Rates and timing of boron applications are dependent on local conditions and should always be made as a result of soil and/ or plant tissue analysis and in conjunction with your Local Agricultural Authority. When used as directed, this product does not supply all the nutrients required by plants and is to supplement a soil fertility program based on soil tests. Please refer to your local dealer representative or extension agent for use guidelines. Use in accordance with recommendations of a qualified individual or institution, such as, but not limited to, a certified crop advisor, agronomist, university crop extension publication, or apply according to recommendations in your approved nutrient management plan.
