Seed treatment comparison

Seed treatment technology applies a protective coating to seeds before sowing. It reduces the risk of losing new pasture or crop at establishment. Barenbrug markets three Agricote seed treatments for grass, clover, and brassicas.

Importance of seed treatment

By protecting newly-emerged seedlings from pests and disease, seed treatment helps prevent establishment failure. Such losses can be $3350/ha or more. Seed treatments can also reduce the need for spraying.
