Seed Enhancement
Designed to enhance seedling establishment by delivering improved early seedling vigour and root development through the inclusion of growth promotants and dormancy breaking technologies.
AgriCOTE
AgriCOTE is designed to enhance seedling establishment by delivering improved early seedling vigour and root development through the inclusion of growth promotants and dormancy breaking technologies. It includes nutrients designed to be immediately available to the seedling and provides protection against fungal diseases through a fungicide treatment. AgriCOTE also includes insecticidal treatments that offer protection from biting and sucking insects. In addition to all of these state-of-the-art elements, AgriCOTE also features encapsulated rhizobia which prolongs shelf life of treated legumes and helps to ensure good legume nodulation in the paddock, maximising your investment.
Potential benefits include:
- Dormancy breaking technology which is not available in any other seed coat
- Improved plant establishment
- Improved early root growth and development
- NPK nutrients and trace elements that are immediately available to the seedling
- A more robust seedling for slow establishing species
- Encapsulated rhizobia for longer shelf life
- Protection against insects and fungal diseases
- Improved mixing and handling characteristics
- Improved ballistic properties for spread applications.
PremiumCOTE
PremiumCOTE seed coating technology vastly improves the establishment of pasture seeds while enhancing seed nutrient, plant establishment and defence against disease and insect attack.
PremiumCOTE begins with the highest quality seeds, incorporating advanced binding and protective polymers, with lime as the foundation for its innovative seed coating technology. The unique PremiumCOTE polymer ensures uniform seed coats, allowing seeds to flow smoothly through planting equipment and ensuring even distribution across the paddock. This technology creates an optimal environment for germination by balancing pH levels and enhancing moisture retention, leading to faster germination and better establishment rates.
PremiumCOTE excels in promoting robust seedling development, resulting in stronger roots and larger shoots, which accelerates the time to first grazing or harvest. Enhanced early root development equips plants to withstand adverse weather conditions more effectively. This cutting-edge seed coating technology also improves seedling tolerance to postemergent stresses, facilitating the growth of productive pastures in challenging environments. Additionally, PremiumCOTE offers the flexibility to incorporate fungicides and insecticides, safeguarding seedlings as they germinate.
PremiumCOTE treatments provide readily available nutrients to seedlings, protect against fungal diseases with fungicide treatments, and defend against biting and sucking insects with insecticidal treatments. Furthermore, PremiumCOTE features encapsulated rhizobia, which extends the shelf life of treated legumes and enhances legume nodulation in the field, maximizing your investment.
Potential benefits include:
- Unique dormancy-breaking technology exclusive to PremiumCOTE
- Enhanced early development with growth-promoting chemicals and greater root growth
- Immediate availability of NPK macronutrients and trace elements
- Robust seedlings, ideal for slow-establishing grasses
- Encapsulated rhizobia for longer shelf life and effective field nodulation
- Comprehensive protection against insects and fungal diseases
- Uniform seed size for even plant distribution
- Synchronized germination for maximum yield
- Water-soluble coating for quick field breakdown
- Maintains high seed germination rates
- Better ballistic properties for aerial seeding in challenging terrains.
