Key Takeaways:
Fauji Fertilizer Company Limited (FFC) in Pakistan launched “Sona Boron DAP” on April 23, 2024, which is the first value-added DAP fertilizer in Pakistan containing 0.1% Boron. Boron is crucial for crop growth, particularly during reproductive and fruit setting stages. Approximately 60% of Pakistan’s soils are Boron-deficient, making its use essential for enhancing crop yields by 10-23%. Sona Boron DAP contains 18% Nitrogen, 46% Phosphorus, and 0.1% Boron. It ensures uniform Boron distribution in soil and can be used through fertigation in later crop stages. FFC aims to advance Pakistan’s agriculture by innovating new products like Sona Boron DAP, ensuring food security, and improving farmer profitability and human health.
