Nutrient stress, temperature stress, drought and disease all have the potential to threaten crop performance, but incorporating biostimulants into crop management programmes through the season can help to safeguard yield and protect profitability.

The wrong adjuvant can be an expensive extra, but the right adjuvant can be a vital component and incredibly beneficial to the crop protection programme.

This spring repair, recharge and building resilience are the key objectives for growers seeking to recover plant health in winter crops to prevent a further slide in yield potential – and there’s one biostimulant that’s proven it could bridge the way to success.

The findings from a new study conducted at Nottingham University have shown that treating bean and pea seeds with the biostimulant seed treatment, Newton, could improve germination by up to two days.

With the calendar date suggesting spring is just around the corner, and sprayers poised to act as soon as field conditions allow, pulse growers are urged to consider partnering pre-em sprays with a residual herbicide adjuvant to get crops off to a strong weed-free start.

Improving the resilience and readiness of crops for the challenges of the spring growing season is becoming increasingly crucial for profitable harvests, with weather extremes, rising input costs, and loss of authorised plant protection products putting increasing pressure on growers and their crops.

Newton biostimulant seed treatment is comprised of unique stimulating peptides that stimulate plants to thrive. It’s the natural, eco-friendly alternative to chemical seed treatment and your root to higher yields.

Kantor is the only does-everything adjuvant that gives you the flexibility to maximise crop protection performance, when often the weather, time constraints and challenging targets, are working against you.

The inclusion of a residual herbicide adjuvant with the pre-em spray is fast becoming a vital weapon on the black-grass battlefield as farmers and spray operators look to get the upper hand against the pernicious weed.

Plant health is everything and it all starts with the seed. Applying Newton Biostimulant seed treatment to your cereal seed will help you achieve the best possible start.

The move to more regenerative farming practices is a growing trend and one that can benefit soils, finances and the whole ecosystem. By boosting seeds, rather than treating plants, applying a biostimulant seed treatment to your cereal seed offers a more sustainable start than chemical alternatives.
