AlphaKote Special Lettuce

Add to favourites
Today's planting equipment requires a smooth finish for optimal results. Pelleting seeds creates that smooth surface and uniform shape as well as an increase in size and weight: all characteristics designed to maximize planting efficiency. Incotec's coating products are developed to maintain the germination capacity of the seed. The AlphaKote pellet improves sowability and can act as a carrier for plant protection products. Incotec's AlphaKote pellet performs very well, even under varying growing conditions, and has a good stand establishment. Combined with a priming to improve germination uniformity and performance over a broader temperature range.
