Boron is needed in very small quantities, yet a shortage can quietly cut fruit set, damage growing tips, and weaken the plant's structure. Valagro Boroplus Agri is a liquid boron micronutrient made to prevent this deficiency. It contains 11% water-soluble boron, complexed with ethanolamine, an organic molecule that helps the boron spread evenly and stay available to the plant.
Boroplus Agri can be applied as a foliar spray or through fertigation. Because the boron is complexed, the risk of phytotoxicity that normally comes with boron products is strongly reduced. This page explains what the product contains, where boron matters most, and how to use it safely.

Boron supports flowering, pollination, fruit set, and the strength of cell walls and growing tips. Deficiency often shows up as poor fruit set, uneven fruit development, or brittle and damaged tissue. Boron is also a nutrient where the gap between too little and too much is small, which is why a complexed, liquid form that spreads evenly is useful.
The uses listed for this product show where boron deficiency causes the most visible problems:
| Crop / Situation | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Grapes | Helps improve fruit set and prevent millerandage (uneven berry set) |
| Sugar Beet | Helps prevent and treat "heart sickness" |
| Celery | Helps prevent rib breaking |
| Olive | Helps increase fruit set |
| Rapeseed, Sunflower, Alfalfa | Helps prevent boron deficiency |
| Cabbage, Turnip, Asparagus | Helps meet boron needs |
| Pome Fruit, Stone Fruit | Helps meet boron needs |
| Tobacco, Cotton | Helps meet boron needs |
| Application Method | Recommended Dose |
|---|---|
| Foliar Spray | As per product label recommendation |
| Fertigation | As per product label recommendation |
The correct dose depends on the crop, growth stage, and how severe the boron deficiency is, so confirm the exact rate and timing from the product label before use. Do not increase the dose beyond the label, because boron can harm plants when over-applied.
How much boron does Boroplus Agri contain?
It contains 11% water-soluble boron (w/w), complexed with ethanolamine.
Why is the boron complexed with ethanolamine?
Complexing boron with an organic molecule helps it distribute evenly in foliar spray and fertigation, and strongly reduces the phytotoxicity risk that boron products can carry.
Can Boroplus Agri be used as a foliar spray and through drip irrigation?
Yes. Its liquid formulation is suitable for both foliar application and fertigation.
Can it be mixed with pesticides?
It is mixable with most common pesticides, but do a compatibility test first and follow the label.
What is the recommended dose?
The dose depends on the crop, growth stage, and severity of deficiency. Use the crop-specific rate given on the product label.
