Codacal Boro is a calcium and boron complex, especially recommended for foliar application, in order to avoid deficiencies of these elements.
Calcium is a secondary macronutrient of great importance. Since it is one of the components of the cell wall, a deficiency of calcium causes the cell walls to lose consistency, which leads to spots and necrosis such as bitter-pit (apple), blossom-end-rot, or apical necrosis (tomato, pepper, lettuce, celery, etc.).
The application of calcium through Codacal Boro promotes the consistency of cell walls and improves the resistance of crops to decomposition. Boron aids in the transport of sugars and is essential for the synthesis of pectins in the cell wall. The combination of calcium and boron gives the fruit post-harvest quality.
