Therefore,we evaluated the effect of fertilization borácica and potassium in sunflower farming Catissol. Theexperimental design was a randomized complete block in a split-plot, 5 x 4 with five repetitions. Thetreatments consisted of a combination of five doses of boron (0, 2, 4, 6 and 8 kg ha-1), with four levelsof potassium (0, 30, 60 and 90 kg ha-1). Plants were harvested at 72 days after sowing and wereevaluated for height, leaf area, dry biomass and productivity. Doses of 6 and 90 kg ha-1 of boron andpotassium, respectively, provided better responses in height (190 cm), leaf area (4374 cm2), shootdry biomass (175 g) and productivity of 4170 kg ha-1.}, number={3}, journal={Comunicata Scientiae}, author={Feitosa, Hernandes de Oliveira and FARIAS, GABRIEL CASTRO and Silva Junior, Ricardo José costa and ferreira, Francisco jardelson and Andrade Filho, Francisco Luciano and Lacerda, Claudivan Feitosa}, year={2013}, month={Oct.}, pages={302–307} }
