Boron Availability During Crop Growth of Groundnut

Abstract

A pot experiment was conducted with POL, 1 groundnut variety, with two forms of boron at different levels. The availability of boron increased with increase in applied doses of boron. The available boron content decreased with time and more rapidly during first 40 days presumably due to rapid absorption by the plant in the active period of growth and partly due to fixation. Between the two forms tried borax was found to be more available than boric acid.
