What Are the Effects of Boron Deficiency in Rapeseed? A Detailed Explanation of the Symptoms

(Agricultural Wealth Network) Boron is an essential micronutrient for rapeseed. Although it is not a structural component of the rapeseed plant, its role in plant metabolism is extremely important. Applying boron can prevent the occurrence of the phenomenon in which rapeseed flowers but fails to set seed. Boron is essential for rapeseed pollen, the differentiation of the generative nucleus in pollen grains, the differentiation and development of the ovary and ovule, the fertilization process, and embryo development. Any boron deficiency will cause rapeseed to flower without setting seed.
