Available with the Envirogro seed treatment process
The Envirogro seed treatment process gives PGG Wrightson Seeds tropical and subtropical seed varieties a better start. Envirogro is a tailored process, that cleans, treats, and improves the bare seed count and purity of tropical, subtropical grasses and legumes.
If the species requires, the bare seed is taken through a process of de-hulling leaving only the caryopses, before being coated and cleaned again to achieve high purity.
Envirogro benefits
- Coated with insecticide, polymer and talc/lime
- Improved seed flowability and ballistic properties
- Improves seed quality and purity
- Increases bare seed count for a higher return on investment
- Produces a clean, uniform seed
- Reduced risk of establishment failure
- Removes seed husk from the caryopsis (if required)
- Removes weed seed, waste material and contaminants
