In this conversation, Rod breaks down why boron plays a much bigger role than most farmers realize and why focusing only on N, P, and K may be leaving profitability behind. You’ll learn why boron impacts pollination, root growth, sugar movement, nutrient uptake, and stress tolerance. Rod also explains why timing matters more than simply applying more product and why split applications consistently outperform large single applications. In this conversation, we cover: • Why boron is critical for crop performance • How boron affects phosphorus and potassium uptake • Why split applications win • The danger of waiting for visual deficiency symptoms • How foliar feeding strategies impact ROI If your soil test does not include boron levels, this episode may change how you look at fertility planning moving forward.","meta_description":"Boron might be one of the most overlooked nutrients in agriculture, and it could be quietly stealing yield from your operation.
