Active PLS™
Active PLS™ improves germination, early growth, and the efficiency of biological nitrogen fixation (BNF) for legumes.
Description
Active PLS™ is a seed nutritional coating that supplies seeds with the micronutrients and trace elements needed to improve germination, early growth and the efficiency of Biological Nitrogen Fixation (BNF). Active PLS™ works synergistically with rhizobial inoculants to maximize BNF, leading to stronger plants and higher yields.
When to Use
Prior to seeding soybeans, faba beans, peas, lentils, chickpeas and other beans.
How it Works
Active PLS has a pH ideally balanced to promote rhizobacterial growth on legumes and fosters better communication between the root and the inoculant.
Active PLS maintains the ability to simultaneously up-regulate desirable pathways and down-regulate undesirable pathways, allowing plants to maximize their genetic potential under cold, wet or drought conditions.
Active PLS has a flexible formula which can be mixed either simultaneously or sequentially with rhizobial inoculants and compatible agrochemicals.
Label
Contains nutrients to support seed germination, root growth and compatible with inoculants.
READ THE ENTIRE LABEL BEFORE USING THIS PRODUCT.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE: SHAKE WELL BEFORE USING. Apply once before seeding as a seed nutrient dressing to soybeans, faba beans, peas, lentils, chickpeas and other beans using 4 L / metric tonne of seed. Seed coating can be done simultaneously with Active PLS™ and compatible agrochemicals. If using Active PLS™ without additional agrochemicals, dilute with water (1:1 ratio) to ensure uniform coverage of seeds.
- Calibrate equipment to release the required amount of Active PLS™ and other agrochemicals based on seed flow rate.
- Thoroughly mix seeds with the Active PLS™ (and other agrochemicals). A coloring additive allows a visual check to ensure all seeds are uniformly coated.
- Allow treated seeds to air dry for 5-10 min before seeding.
- Application rates exceeding recommended rates can negatively affect seed germination.
Use this product on the basis of soil and tissue analysis in accordance with recommendations of a qualified person or institution or apply according to recommendations in your approved nutrient program. This product may be tank mixed with pesticides. In some cases, tank mixing with pest control products can result in reduced pesticide efficacy or increased host crop injury. The user should contact the company responsible for the pest control product before applying any tank mix.
Add tank mix partners in the following order: Seed, Agrochemical, Active PLS™, Inoculants. Keep agitator running while mixing.
