Boron is an important micronutrient for growth and development of crop plants. Plant species differin their requirement of boron for growth. This study was conducted to determine the effect of boronapplication on the plant characteristics of maize during early leaf stages. The experiments wereconducted in Tel – Kaliş agricultural research area at the Mustafa Kemal University in 2015 and2016 growing seasons. The field experiments were arranged in a split plot design with threereplications. Four boron dosages (control, 4, 6 and 8 mg/m2) were applied at three growing stages(V2, V4 and V2V4 (at V2 and V4 stages in two equal parts) as foliar spray. The results revealed thatthe effects of foliar application of B were positive but statistically insignificant on plantcharacteristics. Further researches should be conducted for suitable boron application time at different growth stages of maize.
