Premium Products Deliver Positive Results

Mike Burkholder, an agronomy consultant with Sunrise Cooperative headquartered in Fremont, Ohio, services growers in about 14 counties in north-central Ohio. "I think we've helped our growers increase their soybean yield potential by applying VAULT® HP plus INTEGRAL® performance-boosting treatment system to their soybean seed as part of our total seed treatment package," says Burkholder.

The triple BioStacked® VAULT HP plus INTEGRAL system pairs a patented biological performance enhancer and a high-count rhizobia inoculant with INTEGRAL biological fungicide. Collectively, these components stimulate rhizobia for improved nitrogen fixation; help extend protection from key soil-borne diseases; and enhance root vigor, nodulation and nutrient uptake. Stacking biologicals with multiple modes of action can help provide more consistent and dependable performance improvements across a broad range of environmental and soil conditions.

"Our plan is to continue to keep VAULT HP plus INTEGRAL in the mix with our seed treatment offering so growers know they can come to us to get their soybeans treated with premium products and get good results," says Dan Gahler, seed product manager with Sunrise Cooperative. "With the weather we've had in Ohio this year, nothing came without some trials and issues, but we were able to overcome them, get the products applied and help our customers get good results."
