- Intervention effect Boron spraying increased pod number, with the highest count of 46.2 pods per plant at 150 mg L −1 versus 27.2 in the control.
- Intervention effect Boron spray treatments yielded 1.10–1.32 t ha −1, with the highest grain yield at 150 mg L −1 and lowest without boron spray.
- Intervention effect Optimal foliar boron increased seed oil content by up to 5.3% compared with control.
- Intervention effect The authors conclude that 150 mg L −1 foliar boron increases sesame fruit set.
