Speedfol™ B SP

Speedfol™ B SP improves fruitset, increases yield and has a positive effect on crop quality.
Boron (B) is essential for cell wall formation (formation of pectin and lignin) and is a structural
component of the cell wall. B is required for sugar metabolism and the transportation of sugars. B
is needed for proper pollen germination, and an adequate B level in the stigma is necessary for
pollen tube growth (key factor for normal seed and fruit development). A lack of B may lead to
flower and fruit abortion.
Characteristics
• Speedfol™ B SP is applied to the canopy
to improve the fruitset and productivity of
vegetables, fruit and nut trees, cereals and
other crops.
• The polyborate formulation with its high
boron content of 17% B in combination
with an extended rainfastness and a builtin
penetration system, favour its solubility
and absorption by the plant.
• Speedfol™ B SP is derived from boric
acid, which is the only form of boron
absorbed by the plant, making it the most
efficient boron source.
• Its acidic pH of 5 reduces the pH of
alkaline water, which makes Speedfol™
B SP ideally suitable for application with
the majority of agricultural pesticides for
higher stability and effectiviness.
• It does not contain chloride, sodium nor
heavy metals, thus minimising the risk of
contamination, scorching or phytotoxicity.
• Speedfol™ B SP conforms to the EPA,
EUREPGAP and GAP norms for foliar
plant nutrition.
