SEED TREATMENT
Seed treatments help enhance stand establishment and get seedlings off to a healthy start, thereby maximizing crop success. Such treatments provide early-season control of seed and seedling pathogens in soybeans, corn, cotton, and wheat. Treatments protect seeds during the crucial early development stages, thereby helping to prevent irreversible damage from early-season pests, including insects, diseases, and nematodes.

SOIL HEALTH
Crop health begins with healthy soil. A nourishing growing medium is critical to successful agriculture, horticulture, and forestry industries. Our mycorrhizal soil inoculants accelerate plant performance by increasing the surface-absorbing area of roots, producing a healthier root system. These specialized fungi colonize plant roots to create a symbiotic root-and-mycelial network within the surrounding soils, thus increasing efficiency in nutrient and water absorption. Optimizing plant hardiness with improved soil health maximizes plant success and improves a return on investment.
