QuickRoots®
QuickRoots® is composed of live microorganisms that quickly colonize the root. QuickRoots® produces novel enzymes that have the ability to release soil nutrients that are otherwise not available to the plant. QuickRoots® has been shown to increase plant uptake of N, P, K and other important soil nutrients.
Results have shown:
- 8+ bushel/acre increase on Corn
- 3+ bushel/acre increase on Soybeans
- 3+ bushel/acre increase on Wheat
- 200+ pound/acre increase on Sunflowers
Nutri-Lock™ is available for silage, haylage and high moisture rolled grain or for baled hay and legumes. Nutri-Lock™ is a live bacteria product that helps speed up the fermentation process saving valuable dry matter, protein and energy. Available in 50 lb. granular units or 5 oz. frozen soluble powder units. Each unit will treat 50 tons.
Poncho 250™ is a seed-applied insecticide that delivers the early-season protection your crop needs against cutworms, wireworms, white grubs, seed corn maggots, grape colaspis, flea beetles, chinch bugs and other early season pests.
Latitude™ contains Gaucho insecticide for seed protection from wireworms, white grubs, seed corn maggots, seed corn beetles, flea beetles (up to first true leaf) and imported fire ants. These major seed-feeding insects are naturally occurring in the soil. Know how to identify them, but remember that they are often hard to find until the damage is done. There is no rescue treatment other than replanting.
Soybean Inoculants
N-Charge Dry Stick™ is a pre-mixed, humus-based, high-tech inoculant containing concentrated numbers of rhizobia with a special built-in sticking agent. For planter box application: 1,000 lbs. Each bag treats 20 units.

Liquid Inoculants
N-Take™ & Primo (with Stride™)
Dry Inoculants: N-Charge™
Why Use soybean inoculants?
1. Ensure sufficient nitrogen fixation
- Soybeans require approximately 4.2# of nitrogen per bushel
- Approximately 70%-75% of required nitrogen is through atmospheric nitrogen fixation
2. Maximize soybean production
N-Take™ Liquid Inoculant
- Available in packaged quantities to treat either 2,500# or 10,000# of soybeans
- Can be seed applied or in-furrow applied with water
- One of the highest bacteria counts in the industry: 1.1 million rhizobia per seed
Primo (with Stride™) Liquid Inoculant
A soybean inoculant that contains a unique biological growth promoter to increase soybean root mass
- Increased root mass will increase nutrient, mineral and water uptake
- Advances early season vigor
- Enhances overall plant health... more roots means more nodulation
N-Charge™ Peat Inoculant
- Designed to eliminate the need to make a slurry in a hopper-box treatment
- Extremely adhesive to the seed: Better seed adhesion means more inoculant being placed in the root zone... where you need it.
- Packaged in numerous sizes: 5 bushel, 25 bushel, and 200 bushel packages
