Start Strong with Improved GroZone® seed coating
GroZone® delivers at least 100% more live Rhizobium per seed than preinoculated uncoated seed. click to view GroZone® Flyer
GroZone® offers a specially selected mix of nitrogen-fixing bacteria, fungicide and coating for:
-
Better Emergence
-
Better Nodulation
-
Better Application
GroZone® seed coating contains unique strains of live Rhizobium and delivers more Rhizobium per seed than preinoculated uncoated seed. GroZone® coating protects these specially selected nitrogen-fixing bacteria and helps sustain their viability in the bag and during establishment.
At planting, GroZone® enhances emergence in wet or dry conditions. GroZone® contains a fungicide to help control diseases that attack new seedings during wet years. In dry years, when germination may be delayed, GroZone® coating protects the seed and promotes Rhizobium survival.
Better Emergence
-
10 – 20% better emergence than preinoculated uncoated seed (Univ. of MN, Univ. of CA)
-
25% better emergence when germination is delayed due to low moisture
-
10% better seedling survival at normal moisture
Better Nodulation
-
At least 100% more live Rhizobium per seed than preinoculated uncoated seed improves root development and nodulation
-
In fluid seeding GroZone® delivers 8,000 live Rhizobium per seed compared to 200 live Rhizobium per seed for preinoculated uncoated seed
-
GroZone® contains a unique mix of Rhizobium strains selected to improve nodulation and promote nitrogen-fixation
Better Application
-
Up to 50 times greater Rhizobium survival with GroZone seed coating compared to preinoculated uncoated seed in fluid fertilizer seeding applications
-
Excellent performance with dry fertilizer (mix and apply within 24 hours)
-
Smooth finish and uniform sizing improves planting accuracy
-
Ideal for reduced till seedings
