Time to think about seed treatments

Seed treatments play an important role in ensuring a good start for a crop.

There is not a substitute to starting with high quality seed. Testing the seed for germination, loose smut and leaf stripe will also help you decide on the apporpriate seed treatment choices.  

Recent SAC research shows rhynchosporium and ramularia can also be transmitted by seed.
