Application Rates
| Seed Treatment | |||
|---|---|---|---|

Slowly add Seed-Start™ to the Platform® solution before applying this mixture to the seed (total mixture should not exceed 12 L/tonne). Refer to NTS Seed Treatment Instructions. The optimum rate will depend on seed size. Good seed coverage is important as the inoculant must come into contact with growing roots for effective colonisation Seed Treatment Guide:
Note: This is a guide only. Generally use the higher rate for lower sowing rates and the lower rate for higher sowing rates. | |||
