Keeping seed treatment on the seed to retain the active ingredient at maximum capacity is one of the main benefits of BASF’s Flo Rite Plantability Seed Coating and that benefits growers at harvest time.

“Our Flo Rite plantability polymer acts as a thin film coating that locks that seed treatment on the seed and keeps it there where a grower can realize the maximum benefit,” said BASF Technical Market Specialist Justin Clark. Think of it as kind of like the candy coating on M&Ms.

Clark says the polymers are very unique in the benefits they provide, in terms of flowability, better and more accurate seed placement, and reduction of skips and doubles in the planting process for corn, soybeans, cotton and wheat. Interview with Justin Clark, BASF
