Precision protection, seed by seed
When it comes to establishing pasture, every seed counts. Seed treatment is a precision agriculture tool that places protection right where it matters most — on the seed itself. By targeting pests and diseases at the point of germination, farmers can sow with greater confidence, knowing their investment has the best chance of success.
Why use seed treatment?
Stronger establishment
Early growth sets the tone for a pasture’s performance. Seed treatments protect young seedlings from soil-borne diseases and insect attack, helping them emerge evenly and quickly fill the paddock.
Better reliability in variable seasons
Autumns and springs aren’t always predictable. Cold soils, wet conditions or insect pressure can quickly thin a new sowing. Treated seed provides an extra layer of insurance when conditions are less than ideal.
Faster return on investment
Well-established pastures grow more feed earlier, allowing grazing sooner and reducing the cost of supplements. Treated seed lowers the risk of having to re-sow or patch up poor paddocks.
More precise, less waste
Instead of blanket spraying entire paddocks, seed treatment targets protection to the seed itself. That means fewer chemicals used overall, less off-target impact, and smarter stewardship of inputs.
