Abstract: The yield of chestnut ( Castanea mollissima BL ) is seriously reduced by seedless chestnut in Yanshan area. The emergence of seedless chestnut is related with the lack of boron in the soil. The experiment shows that by applying borax in early spring, the rate of seedless chestnut can be reduced from 85.33% to 2.43% and the production can be increased more than seven times. Spraying borax on the flowers in the blooming stage does not have steady effect, and artificial pollination, N. P.K.application and irrigation have no obvious effect either.

Key words: Chestnut, Seedless, Borax.
