- Intervention effect Boron above 100 mg/L significantly increased dry matter of the autumn sunflower crop compared with the control.
- Intervention effect Only 150 mg/L boron significantly increased seed weight.
- Intervention effect Boron tended to decrease the empty seed percentage.
- Intervention effect Applications above 150 mg/L boron significantly reduced the empty seed percentage of the spring crop.
- Intervention effect Seed yield increased linearly with boron in the autumn crop, with significant increases at 200 and 250 mg/L compared with the control.
- Association Boron was linearly related to green leaf area index in the spring crop.
