Commercial Concentrates

Seasol is a dynamic plant health tonic, made from highly refined seaweed extracts to provide a synergistic range of natural compounds, trace elements and some Potassium. Seasol is 100% Organic and comprised of a unique blend of King Island Bull Kelp (Durvillea potatorum) and Knotted Kelp (Ascophyllum nodosum). The most important stage in pasture production is the initiation of new tillers after grazing. This is when the greatest energy demand is placed on reserves in the crown and roots of the plant. It is also the time that new roots grow. Seasol stimulates rapid re-growth for better pasture production and increased palatability.

SEASOL - Benefits in Brief:

• Ensures a strong healthy root system

• Improves dry matter production, crude protein and pasture quality

• Improves the numbers and diversity of soil microbes

• Speeds up recovery particularly after heavy grazing or flooding

• Sweetens the pasture improving its storage and nutritional value when baled

• Increases natural resistance to insect and fungal attack Improves tolerance to stress, heat, drought and frost conditions

• Improves the performance of applied fertilisers while releasing other locked up minerals and nutrients

• Assists an animal’s immune system by improving the health of its gastro-intestinal tract

Where does Seasol fit into Pasture Production?

Seasol can be used every 4-6 weeks during the growing season as a general plant tonic to aid in optimising plant health and pasture production. Seasol can be applied at specific times (as required) to provide substantial protection against adverse environmental conditions. Seasol is a valuable supplement to follow any fertiliser application aiding uptake and utilisation.

Product Benefits in detail:

The use of Earthcare products results in significant health benefits to plants and soils.

• Improved pasture establishment: Seasol stimulates germination and root growth needed for rapid establishment of new pasture

• Increased feed quality: Seasol increases dry matter production while sweetening the plant to increase palatability, digestibility and nutritional value

• Improved number and diversity of healthy soil microbes: Seasol is a food source for beneficial soil microbes increasing their number and diversity

• Heat and Drought tolerance: Seasol significantly increases heat and drought tolerance of the plants, by reducing transpiration/water loss from the plant cell

• Frost tolerance: Seasol increases the ability of plants to cope with cold or frosty conditions. Plants are better able to maintain higher concentrations within their cells so they can tolerate lower temperatures, reducing their susceptibility to frost damage. They are then also able to recover more rapidly as better conditions return

• Disease and Insect resistance: It has been consistently reported that Seasol treated plants demonstrate reduced incidence and severity of disease and insect attack

GENERAL INFORMATION – CHEMICAL COMPATIBILITY

Earthcare products can be mixed with any soluble fertilisers but should only be mixed with one chemical – preferably a fungicide. Compatibility of any chemicals should be checked first. Once diluted, Earthcare products should be used within 24 hours.
