In a typical spread pattern, there are more TIGER ® Micronutrient Enhanced Sulphur pastilles per square foot versus granules of varying sizes used by other micronutrient manufacturers. More TIGER ® Micronutrient Enhanced Sulphur pastilles mean more feeding zones for plant roots.

Innovate | Excel | Perform THE TIGER ® ZONE The nutritional benefits of sulphur are well documented in a wide variety of crops. When soil microbes oxidize sulphur contained in TIGER ® Micronutrient Enhanced Sulphur, they produce a sulfuric acid zone throughout the growing season. This acid creates a soil solution rich in easily absorbable sulfate forms, minimizing issues with loss or tie-up that can occur with other micronutrient products. These water soluble sulfates disperse more broadly along with the sulphur within the soil solution and reach more roots.

Boron is an essential micronutrient that is often at less than optimal levels, even in soils that test adequate. Sulphur, often called the fourth macronutrient, is integral for protein synthesis, chlorophyll transport and nitrogen utilization.

Now full service ag retailers and their customers can get both nutrients together. TIGER® Boron 2% is the first-ever product that combines sulphur and boron in an application- friendly homogeneous pastille for more uniform spatialdistribution of sulphur and boron together. Greater spatial distribution of this unique sulphur and boron combination can lead to increased absorption of boron by root hairs and improved plant health. Also, the new pastille dramaticallyreduces the amount of filler and fines because sulphur is the carrier agent for the boron.

maKinG the Case For boronBoron is essential for nitrogen fixation as it regulates oxygen

in legume nodules. Boron also plays a structural role in cell walldevelopment and maintenance. It is vital for reproductive healthincluding pollen tube growth and pollen germination in all crops.Nutrient uptake is slowed in boron-deficient plants.

Boron deficiency has been described in scientific literatureas “more extensive than deficiency of any other plantmicronutrient.” Even when boron deficiency is recognized,fixing the problem has been challenging. For example, particlesizes of traditional forms of boron are not always uniform.This can result in uneven application in the field because theparticles settle out during mixing, transport and spreading.

The charts below demonstrate the spatial distribution of the Tiger Boron 2% (yellow) compared to a traditional spatial distribution of boron Ulexite particles (blue).

maKinG the Case For sulphurGreater crop yields demand more sulphur. Our once

sulphur-rich soils are rapidly showing sulphur deficiencies with the advent of low-sulphur fuels and reduced sulphur emissions from power plants.

Tiger Boron 2% is the first-ever combination of boron and sulphur into a homogeneous pastille that contains minimal fillers and 82% total plant nutrients. The uniform pastille provides up to seven times more spatial distribution compared with traditional forms of boron such as Ulexite.

Sulphur is an essential component of two amino acidsmethionine and cysteine which are required for protein synthesis,chlorophyll transport, and nitrogen utilization. Applying nitrogenwithout taking the sulphur balance into account can potentiallyreduce yields and lower grain protein content.

a beneFiCial relationship betweensulphur and boron

Many soils, especially sandy, coarse textured soils are borondeficient. Even soils with high organic matter may have a hiddenboron deficiency where the boron forms are not available to theplant due to high soil pH, soil moisture or calcium levels.

Without sulphur, boron applications on high pH soils may be less effective. High pH soils limit boron uptake; however, sulphur creates micro sites of lower pH to enhance the plant’s ability to utilize all micronutrients more efficiently.

Get two in one–tiGer boron 2% FertilizerTiger Boron 2% fertilizer combines high quality sulphur and

boron in a single homogeneous pastille. The pastille is designedand manufactured to blendwith similar sized particles ofmacro nutrients eliminatingopportunities for segregationduring application.

The uniform pastille size ensures more particles per “fieldapplied surface area” even at a lower application rate comparedto Ulexite. Once in the soil, Tiger Boron 2% pastilles swell andfracture in contact with soil moisture for a more controlledrelease of minute sulphur and boron particles.

Ever smaller sulphur particles provide soil bacteria morefeeding opportunities, which offers plants more nutrient and increases uptake of boron, sulphur, and other essential micro and macronutrients. learn more at www.gotboron.com.
