PRIME AA BOR

PRIME AA BOR concentrates boron, the micronutrient that governs flowering, pollination and fruit set, at 6.5% in a single foliar feed. Produced from hydrolysed protein through the Peptionics process, it complexes that boron with free amino acids and short peptides that improve how well it is absorbed and moved through the plant. On a 32.5% amino acid base, the product works as both a targeted boron feed and a biostimulant, its organic, amino-acid-form nitrogen supporting the crop as the boron works. PRIME AA BOR is built for the pre-flowering to fruit-set window, and for correcting boron deficiency on responsive fruit, nut, oilseed and seed crops.

Key Benefits

• Drives flowering, pollination and fruit set. PRIME AA BOR supplies boron in the role reproduction depends on: supporting pollen tube growth and stigma receptivity, and the sugar translocation to flowers that secures pollination and fruit retention.
• Raises the share of applied boron that is taken up. Complexing boron with amino acids protects it on the leaf surface and in the spray solution and improves its absorption, so more of each application is taken into the plant rather than left unavailable.
• Builds and stabilises cell walls. Most of a plant’s boron sits in the cell wall, where it is essential to cell wall formation, lignification and the differentiation of conductive tissue, underpinning structural integrity in new growth.
• Feeds the crop and buffers stress. The organic, amino-acid-form nitrogen and the free amino acids supply metabolic building blocks and act as osmolytes and signalling molecules, supporting growth and helping the crop hold performance under stress.
• Encourages root and shoot development. The hydrolysate stimulates root growth and lateral root density, building the architecture that underpins establishment and further nutrient capture.

How It Works

PRIME AA BOR is built on a protein hydrolysate: collagen broken down into free amino acids and short peptides that the plant absorbs and uses ready-made. Those amino acids act as natural complexing agents, binding boron and holding it in a form that improves its uptake. This matters for boron in particular, because it is poorly mobile in the phloem, so boron that reaches a leaf cannot move on readily to the buds, flowers and shoot tips that depend on it; complexing it with amino acids improves both its absorption and its movement to those tissues.

Once inside the plant, the amino acids and peptides feed nitrogen and carbon metabolism, supplying the building blocks for proteins and supporting the enzymes of nitrogen assimilation. They also act as osmolytes and signalling molecules that help the crop hold performance under stress, and they stimulate the root development that underpins further nutrient uptake. The free amino acid fraction is available immediately, while the bound peptides release more gradually, giving both a fast response and sustained activity.

When to Use PRIME AA BOR

Apply in the run-up to and through flowering, and where boron deficiency is diagnosed.

• PRIME AA BOR suits the pre-flowering and bud-development stage, when boron sets up successful pollination.
• It fits flowering and fruit set, supporting pollen tube growth and the retention of developing fruit.
• Use it at early signs of boron deficiency, such as deformed growing points or poor set, to correct the shortfall.
• It integrates into foliar programs on fruit, nut and seed crops where boron drives yield.

Adverse conditions around flowering slow the plant’s own metabolism and nutrient movement, which is when a readily available, mobile boron supply matters most.

Boron has a relatively narrow margin between sufficiency and excess, so confirm the crop’s requirement and rate before application.
