Jumpstart seedlings with Abivium

Enhance seed placement and vitality using Abivium, a graphite–talc coated seed lubricant. Loaded with bio stimulants and eight key micronutrients, it enhances germination, stand establishment and stress resilience, ideal for any planting conditions you may face.

Lock in preemergence control with Soiltrate

Apply Soiltrate, a soil deposition adjuvant, as you plan herbicide treatments. It improves residual and preemergent weed control by reducing drift & evaporation, keeping herbicide active in the root zone, perfect for fall burndown and standalone preemergence applications. 

Trivar EZ logo

Build soil strength with Trivar EZ

When mixing dry fertilizer in the fall, add Trivar EZ, a chelated granular micronutrient powerhouse. Packed with calcium, manganese, molybdenum, sulfur and zinc, its patented Levesol chelation prevents phosphorus tieup, boosting micronutrient availability for healthier plants and higher yields.

N-Edge logo

Safeguard your nitrogen with NEdge

Protect surface applied urea or UAN with the NEdge line up, a NBPT and DCD nitrogen stabilizer. It slows urease activity and ammonia volatilization giving you up to 2–3 weeks for moisture or incorporation. The bright green or blue color ensures even coverage and shielding of your nitrogen investment. 

These product solutions bring efficiency and reliability to your agronomy plan, helping you start the season strong and set the stage for healthier, more productive crops all year long.
