Lovofert CN15+B - Czech field calcium nitrate with boron
Czech field calcium nitrate with boron is a fertiliser from Tarfert (Lovochemie brand), containing boron (0.3%) and calcium nitrate. It is intended for use on all crops and helps to eliminate boron deficiency, which affects 80% of Polish soils.
Description
Field calcium nitrate with boron - a fertiliser supplying boron
What are the benefits of using Czech field calcium nitrate with boron fertiliser?
- Eliminates boron deficiency, which is lacking in 80% of Polish soils,
- Hygroscopicity - dissolves very quickly, even without rainfall,
- Contains nitrogen in an easily absorbable nitrate form,
- Is easily assimilated by plants,
- Can be used on all crops,
- Helps in proper nutrient uptake,
- Reduces losses during transport and storage,
- Ensures less deformed and cracked fruits,
- Increases sugar content in fruits - improves taste,
- Reduces root cracking.
Czech field calcium nitrate with boron is a fertiliser from Tarfert (Lovochemie brand) that has all the advantages of field calcium nitrate but additionally contains boron at 0.3%. Most soils in Poland are deficient in boron, hence its supply with fertilisers is necessary.
This calcium nitrate also contains calcium nitrate. Boron is present as tetrahydrate disodium octaborate. This compound is 100% water soluble.
It comes in granules that are not coated with an anti-caking agent, which is a great advantage as such agents contaminate crops with petrochemical-derived chemicals.
It acts quickly and is fully water soluble.
What is the composition of Lovofert Czech field calcium nitrate with boron fertiliser?
- Nitrogen (N) 15%,
- nitrate form 13.8%,
- ammonium form 1.2%, - Calcium (CaO) 26%,
- Boron (B) 0.3%.
What other benefits does boron fertilisation provide?
Boron:
- By participating in the formation of root hairs, helps in proper nutrient and water uptake,
- Reduces losses during transport and storage by increasing calcium content in fruits,
- Fruits are less cracked and deformed,
- Increases sugar content in fruits - making them sweeter and thus better tasting,
- Participates in the formation of pollen and ovules, which are crucial for proper flowering and fruit setting,
- Reduces cracking of root vegetables,
- Helps limit tomato blight and heart-shaped beet leaf blight,
- Protects cauliflower heads from browning,
- Makes oilseed rape have a higher seed content in pods and supports proper root and above-ground development of oilseed rape,
- Supports the grain filling process of the cob in maize cultivation.
How to apply Czech field calcium nitrate with boron?
Lovofert Czech field calcium nitrate with boron should be applied by broadcasting.
In which crops can Czech field calcium nitrate with boron be used?
- Horticultural plants,
- Berry plants,
- Field vegetables and protected crops,
- Agricultural crops, with particularly positive effects in maize and oilseed rape cultivation.
How to store Lovofert Czech field calcium nitrate with boron granulated fertiliser?
The fertiliser should be stored on an impermeable surface. It should be protected from weather conditions.

Application and dosage
What is the dosage, timing and method of application of Czech field calcium nitrate with boron fertiliser - orchard crops?
- Application timing: at the beginning of vegetation and during flowering and fruit growth,
- Dose: 100-300 kg/ha.
What is the dosage, timing and method of application of Czech field calcium nitrate with boron fertiliser - field vegetable crops?
- Application timing: from 2-3 weeks after transplanting seedlings or emergence (2-3 times) every 2-3 weeks,
- Dose: 100-300 kg/ha.
What is the dosage, timing and method of application of Czech field calcium nitrate with boron fertiliser - protected crops?
- Application timing and dose: the product is used when systems allowing fertiliser application together with irrigation are lacking, mainly as top dressing, by manual broadcasting in single doses not exceeding 2–3 kg/100 m2 during periods of plant demand for nitrogen and calcium. The product is recommended for species requiring additional boron fertilisation and during higher demand for this micronutrient (flowering period). In basic fertilisation, broadcast calcium nitrate is applied just before sowing/planting, especially in cases of acidic pH and/or low calcium content in the growing medium, at a dose of 3–5 kg/100 m2.
What is the detailed dosage of Czech field calcium nitrate with boron fertiliser for specific crops?
- Head cabbage: 250 – 300 kg/ha
- Field tomato: 150 - 200 kg/ha
- Cauliflower: 350 – 500 kg/ha
- Protected tomato: 2 - 3 kg/100m2
- Fruit-bearing strawberries: 100 - 130 kg/ha
- Orchards: 250 – 500 kg/ha
- Lawns: 3 – 3.5 kg/100m2
