PROTEC – Pulse Inoculant Polymer Coating
What It Is
PROTEC is a seed-applied polymer coating that acts as a protective binder for inoculants on pulse crops. Designed to reduce desiccation and maintain rhizobia viability on treated seed, it helps extend the usable life of treated seed beyond traditional windows.
Key Benefits
Extends on-seed shelf life of inoculants up to 30 days
Creates a protective moisture barrier around the rhizobia
Reduces inoculant dust-off and seed bridging
Compatible with peat-based and liquid inoculants
Supports better nodulation and stand establishment
Easy-to-apply with typical seed treating equipment
Performance Insight
PROTEC increases the effectiveness of on-seed treatments by safeguarding rhizobia under heat and handling stress. It’s especially useful in large-batch treatments or in commercial operations that need flexibility between treatment and planting.
Application Notes:
Typically applied in the customer’s yard from bins or trucks
Minimum of 500 bushels
Custom designed packages available upon request
Packaging:
Application-specific; custom designed depending on needs
Not a jug or tote – this is a seed-coating solution delivered via mobile treatment setups or retailer application stations
