- Intervention effect Boron fertilization gave the maximum economic return in sunflower at 3.13 kg ha−1.
- Intervention effect Boron did not affect oil content or fatty acid composition of sunflower oil.
- Observation Sunflower cultivar M734 produced about 3000 kg ha−1 of seeds in soils with only 0.30 mg kg−1 of boron.
- Observation With proper irrigation, the M734 cultivar absorbed boron from the 0 − 40 cm soil layer.
