Combating Early Season Risks with PROTIVATE™️

Enter PROTIVATE™ seed treatments.  

PROTIVATE is a line of seed treatments designed to provide the early-season crop nutrition needed to help increase root growth while also offering the same flowability properties a grower would get with talc or graphite. These proven solutions also help fuel early growth to combat the early spring conditions like wet and cold environments that can negatively impact a crop.  

Simply put, PROTIVATE can help give crops the boost needed to protect from early season stressors and ensure necessary nutrients are available at the start of a plant’s life cycle. 
 

The Right Solution for You & Operational Flexibility 

PROTIVATE offers growers the freedom to select a formulation that works best with their operation and crop. Whether applied at the planter-box or applied before it reaches the farm-gate, there’s a solution to meet a variety of operational needs.  

  • PROTIVATE NU4-DRI is a dry seed nutritional that improves early root growth and plant vigor. By providing proper nutrition to the seed, plants can better withstand early-season cold and water stress while progressing through the vegetative growth stage. Your favorite partner in the planter box, NU4-DRI is the right seed treatment to address the critical, early stages of crop growth to maximize yield. 
  • PROTIVATE NU5-DRI is a dry seed nutritional and ideal soybean and legume formulation for early growth. By providing proper nutrition to the seed, plants can better withstand early-season cold and water stress while progressing through the vegetative growth stage. The availability of molybdenum improves nodulation and nitrogen efficiency while the presence of iron helps treat early season iron deficiency chlorosis.
  • PROTIVATE NU5-LUX is the first seed finisher containing micronutrients ideally formulated for soybean and legume early growth and is the right seed treatment finisher to address the critical early stages of crop growth to maximize yield. NU5-LUX is also capable of improving lubrication and flowability. 

As you plan for 2022, make sure you’re giving your crops their best chance with this dual-purpose solution. To find which PROTIVATE proven solution is best for your operation this spring contact a KAS representative today.
