Flusig

Boron-based nutrition with nitrogen fortification

«Flusig», manufactured by the Italian company Società Chimica Larderello S.p.A., is a highly specialized tool for precision mineral nutrition. The composition is based on boron in a form highly accessible to plants, complemented by a nitrogen content of 10-15%. This synergy elevates the product from a simple mono-fertilizer to a functional productivity stimulant.

Chemical architecture and bioavailability

The core advantage of this formulation is its high solubility and chemical stability in tank mixtures. Thanks to its liquid (solution) form, microelements penetrate the leaf epidermis efficiently during foliar application. The nitrogen component serves as a 'transport agent,' accelerating metabolic processes and increasing the rate at which plant tissues assimilate boron. This is critical during periods of rapid growth, when the plant's demand for microelements spikes.

Field application tactics

The application technology involves foliar spraying, allowing for precise intervention during critical phenological stages:

• Sunflower: Enhances pollen fertility and prevents empty seed sets in heads.
• Corn: Stimulates ear development and fertilization intensity.
• Apple trees: Strengthens cell walls and improves post-harvest shelf life.
• Tomatoes: Improves fruit set and prevents deficiency symptoms during active fruiting.

The product is classified as a low-hazard chemical (Class 4), making it relatively safe when standard agrochemical handling protocols are followed. Integrating «Flusig» into a crop management program helps bypass soil-related limitations, where boron is often locked and unavailable for root uptake, thereby ensuring a predictable yield increase by optimizing the plant’s reproductive capacity.
