Abstract: The aim of this study is to determine the status of boron toxicity in vineyard areas within Manisa Province, Türkiye.The study was conducted in vineyards located in the districts of Yunusemre, Şehzadeler, Saruhanlı, Salihli, Alaşehir, Ahmetli, Gölmarmara, Sarıgöl, Turgutlu, and Akhisar.Within the scope of the study, boron concentrations in irrigation water, soil, and leaf samples collected from seedless grape cultivation areas were analyzed.According to the analysis results, boron levels in the irrigation water in Gölmarmara, Turgutlu, Salihli, and Alaşehir were found to exceed the unsuitable threshold level of 1.25 ppm.Likewise, soil boron concentrations in these areas were above the critical level of 2.5 ppm.Leaf boron levels also exceeded the high threshold of 100 ppm in Akhisar, Saruhanlı, Şehzadeler, Gölmarmara, Turgutlu, Salihli and Alaşehir.
