Prodigy ST

Prodigy will promote early root development and maximise seedling health and survival by boosting natural resistance and providing vital early growth biostimulants.

Prodigy contains readily-available NPK with vital trace elements; plant extract amino acids; Ascophyllum nodosum extract; extract of immature citrus, zinc, manganese and ammonium acetate; Humic acids; and the powerful activity of Phosphorous acid as phosphites/phosphonates; with a seed coating agent.

It has been well recognised in recent years that the maximum potential of field crops is determined during the vital survival and development period during the first thirty days from germination. That early growth period determines the number of seeds that will not only germinate, but survive to deliver the final yield and quality. The faster the germinating seed lays down the maximum root structure, the faster it collects nutrients to sustain rapid early growth and resist drought. The more rapid early growth is achieved the better the young plants survive adverse conditions and early photosynthetic area is optimised.

Prodigy has been designed to complement existing seed treatments, promoting maximum germination and improving both speed of growth by stimulating hormone production, and the health of the seedling during the vital first 30 days. This produces the optimum platform on which to build yield and quality, generating maximum returns for the grower.

Features

  • Phosphites boost energy and thereby disease resistance, improving all aspects of early health and development.
  • The amino acids and carbohydrates in Prodigy are all derived from natural plant extracts and as such are readily utilised by the developing young plant.
  • The humic acid content improves the plants ability to metabolise nutrients, and brings with it a small amount of fulvic acid to improve membrane permeability.
  • Zinc is well known to support seedling health and development in many crops.
  • Manganese improves over-wintering ability and early growth.
  • Zinc and ammonium acetates have been widely demonstrated to improve root development by stimulating many crops during early growth.
  • The citrus extract is rich in Phytoallexins and bioflavonoids that help protect and strengthen the plant against pest attack. The levels of this inclusion may be increased where early pest attack can no longer be deterred by neonicotinoids.
