Bio Seed Treatments – Combining biologicals and chemistry to sustainably improve plant performance

Poncho Votivo combines a broad-spectrum systemic insecticide with a Bacillus bacterium to create a biological living barrier that protects crop seedlings from aphids, cinch bugs, cutworms, flea beetles, grubs, wireworms and nematodes. The living barrier that is created around plant roots promotes healthy root development and vigorous plant growth, improves capacity to resist abiotic stress and increases yield potential.

Votivo Prime is a biological contact nematicide that provides tolerance to nematodes in soybeans, cotton, maize and rice. A bacterial agent, Bacillus firmus, creates a coating around roots that protects crops from nematodes and kills nematode eggs on contact. It enhances phytohormone production which stimulates root production to enable crops to absorb water and nutrients more efficiently and increase yield potential. Regardless of nematode presence, Votivo Prime helps ensure crops are healthy and productive.

Nodulator Duo SCG combines a superior strain of Rhizobium bacteria, which enhances nitrogen fixation, and Bacillus subtilis bacteria that colonize the developing root system to form a root-strengthening biofilm. Developed as an easy-to-handle granular formulation for greater rhizobia availability, Nodulator Duo SCG improves nodulation in pea and lentil plants, and increases root and shoot biomass to help mitigate stress and maximize yield potential. 

Vault IP Plus protects soybeans from soil-borne diseases and enhances nodule formation to help improve nitrogen fixation and crop yield. Formulated as two unique bio fungicides combined with a superior Rhizobia bacteria strain, Vault IP Plus improves soil aggregation and healthy nodule formation, which enhances nutrient and water uptake by crops. Packaged to improve rhizobia viability and efficacy, it is compatible with other seed treatments and has the lowest application rate of its class.

Integral Pro is a biological seed treatment that protects and strengthens oilseed rape. By colonizing and creating a biofilm around plant roots, Integral Pro stimulates natural plant defenses that reduce incidences of soil-borne diseases, especially Phoma lingam, and decrease flea beetle damage. Integral Pro improves plant establishment, maximizes yield potential and is a complementary addition to a crop protection program.
