Added Nutrition for Legumes, Rice and Corn
BSN Ultra benefits from the addition of two extra nutrients – potassium and magnesium – formulated for the specific needs of legumes, rice and corn. This is a product for those farmers who want an even more targeted response or better performance potential from their investment.
Increases Available Phosphorus
BSN Ultra increases the available phosphorus (inorganic phosphorus) of seed by up to 350% compared to untreated seed. This is because some 70% of seed phosphorus is as phytic acid and is unavailable during early germination. The higher available phosphorus resulting from BSN Ultra is the most important factor ‘kick-starting’ germination, by supplying energy for robust growth and the setting of higher yield potential.
Increases Rhizosphere Activity
BSN Ultra increases rhizosphere activity and exudation of organic acids. It releases soil-based phosphate bound to calcium (in alkaline soils), or soil-based phosphate that is bound to aluminium, iron and manganese in acid soils. Through this increased rhizosphere activity, the resultant faster root system growth protects plants from disease – in contrast to disease susceptibility experienced by a plant with a slow growing root system.
BSN Ultra is a Seed Priming Fertiliser that applies RLF seed delivery system (SDS) technology to imbibe the seed with a multi-nutrient formulation. It has been formulated especially for rice and corn crops, but can be adapted to all crop types.
BSN Ultra is a High-analysis Broad-Spectrum Solution (HBS) that provides the optimum levels of seed nutrient required by the seed in a single application. It is easy to apply, and is fast becoming the new world standard for modern farming practice, where fertilising the seed is every bit as important as fertilising the plant.
Safe transfer of nutrients within close proximity to the seed embryo ensuring high availability to the young seedling.
Increased yield regardless of soil fertiliser rate as it has been scientifically demonstrated that the seed’s internal nutrient concentrations are improved.
Is effective in all soil types as it functions within the seed and embryo regardless of the soil pH.
Fixes variability in seed lots as it corrects the nutrient variability that is naturally found in all seeds.
Greater root mass because of the immediate effect of establishing a robust and larger root
system quickly.
system quickly.
Early vigour and stronger plant growth as it provides the seed with the nutrient it requires for healthy, robust growth during the early weeks of development.
Higher yields, quality and value are a feature because the crops carry the benefits directly through to the farmer with higher yields, better quality and consistent crop results.
Is good business investment for the farmer when used. The cost represents a small percentage of the financial gains achieved and is a positive return for every dollar invested.

Features and Benefits
SDS Provides Safe Transfer of Nutrients
Using BSN’s built in Seed Delivery Systems (SDS) the nutrients are safety transported to be in close proximity to the seed embryo; ensuring nutrients have high availability to the young seedling. Importantly, BSN then triggers the seeds own nutrient sensing mechanisms to set the plant for maximum yield potential.
BSN Increases Yield Regardless of Fertiliser Rate
It is very common in untreated seeds for nutrient levels to be suboptimal levels. It has been scientifically demonstrated that BSN improves the seeds internal nutrient concentrations.
To ensure yield BSN adds “plant-available? Phosphorous which directly influences the yield potential regardless of fertiliser rates applied to the soil.
BSN is Effective in All Soil Types
BSN works effectively in all soil types regardless of the soil pH as the nutrient bypass the soil by being taken up from the seed.
Fix Nutrient Variability in Seed Lots
BSN corrects the nutrient variability that is naturally found in all seeds. BSN is effectively and quickly imbibed by the seed. The resulting effect is that BSN primes the seed to the optimum range for essential nutrients including Phosphorus, Zinc, Copper, Manganese and Molybdenum; ensuring that all seeds are now in optimum nutrient condition.
Greater Root Mass
BSN has the immediate effect of quickly growing a robust and larger root system.
This root system is bigger in overall mass, reach, and most importantly surface area. Typically this means an exponential increase in the number of fine root hairs which produce an increased amount of plant exudate and therefore stimulate greater microbial activity.
Early Vigor and Stronger Plant Growth
BSN when applied to the seed provides during the first 3-4 weeks of development the embryo, seedling and young plant with the nutrient required for healthy and strong growth.
BSN primed plants clearly show earlier, stronger and better plant growth as the basis for greater future yield potential.
Higher Yields, Quality + Value
BSN crops and fruits carry the benefits directly through to the farmer with higher yields, better quality and consistent crop and fruit produce. These benefits all result in higher value, bigger margins and an overall greater financial outcome.
BSN is Good Business for the Grower
BSN is good business for the grower who benefits directly from using BSN. The cost of using BSN is often a small percentage of the financial gains achieved through its application – a positive return for every dollar invested.
General Features of RLF Products
High-analysis, Broad-spectrum Solutions
RLF's world-leading technology that enables the safe formulation and manufacture of fertiliser in a concentrated solution that contain many nutrients – all stable and safely engineered for the plant.
SDS - Seed Delivery System
World-leading first RLF-developed technology that bonds with the nutrient elements to efficiently and safely transport them directly into the seed embryo. This process is called imbibing and it is essential in the success of fertilising the seed directly with nutrient.
NDS - Nutrient Delivery System
World-leading RLF's specially formulated nutrient carrier-technology that bonds with the nutrient elements in solution to transfer them straight into the plant through the leaf cell walls and then directly into the cells themselves.
RDS - Rapid Delivery System
RLF's specially formulated technology that utilises a balance of high- quality chelates and RLF nutrient carrier-technology to enact nutrient transfer rapidly with high-efficiency into the plant and throughout
its cells.
High-Performance Formulations
RLF High-analysis Broad-spectrum products have up to 12 nutrient elements delivered to the plant or seed in a single application – meaning that this one product can perform many functions and achieve many outcomes in this high performance formulation.
Phosphorus-Based
Stimulation of a plant's metabolism requires it to have phosphorus delivered as part of a foliar application. Phosphorus is also vital for yield. Since phosphorus soil uptake is difficult, RLF products provide plant-available phosphorus for immediate uptake and support in the transfer of other elements to the plant.
Plant Physiology + Chemistry
RLF products are developed based on the plants own detailed and individual physiology and related chemistry, in order to achieve the desired results from every formulation. This is the basis of all RLF products. This ensures the correct types of nutrient are delivered to the plant safely and efficiently.
Crop Nutrient Removal
RLF applies the science of nutrient removal in the development and formulation of its high technology products. Crop Nutrient Removal science allows RLF to calculate the quantity of nutrients for every formulation as to balance those nutrients removed during the
plant cycle.
Stable Solution
RLF products are high concentration at specific gravity values between 1.2 and 1.5 – they are engineered in the formulation to ensure that they maintain full integrity. RLF products are tested, accredited and in quality solution that assures stability and longevity.
Build + Increase Organic Matter
RLF high-technology products build and increase organic matter through the development of a larger root mass, greatly increased fine root hairs and a higher rate of root turnover caused by increased microbial activity and the resulting increase in plant exudate. This is supported by the increase in plant nutrient levels and the increase in the mass of growth matter – both returning to the soil at harvest.
Quality Assured
Accredited ISO9001:2008 certification enables RLF to demonstrate high levels of service quality and to show that internationally recognised quality management principles are followed.
World-Leading RLF Product
RLF products are high concentration at specific gravity values between 1.2 and 1.5 – they are engineered in the formulation to ensure that they maintain full integrity. RLF products are tested, accredited and in quality solution that assures stability and longevity.
Low pH Acid Technology
In order to deliver nutrient quickly and safely, hydrogen (acidity) is required to enable the safe and efficient transfer and uptake of the nutrient load by the plant from the outside of the leaf directly into the plant cells.
Proven to Work
All RLF products are scientifically tested, trialled and proven in both laboratory and field evaluations.

Do not sow seeds on day of application.
BSN can be applied to seeds anytime between harvest and seeding. For best result, prime seeds well before sowing time preferably during dry season after harvest.
Always use clean seed as dusty seed causes stickiness and can tie-up BSN nutrient reducing uptake.
Primed seeds should be sown at least one day after treatment. If you prime seeds at seeding time, you may notice that primed seed lot volume increase by 10%, this is reversed quickly when seeds lose their extra moisture. When you drill treated seeds soon after treatment, you may need to allow for increased volume if volume increase is not fully reversed.

Key Observation about BSN and Seeds
Important Instructions and Precautions
- Do not add extra Trace Elements to BSN Seed Primer as this could inhibit seed germination or cause seed toxicity.
- It is always best to use clean seeds for priming as dusty seeds can cause stickiness. Dust on the seed can also tie-up nutrients on the seed surface, reducing the effectiveness of BSN seed priming uptake, with less nutrient imbibed inside the seed.
- For fungicide/pesticide compatibility check first at www.rlfchemtest.com or perform a simple jar test.
- When mixing with a liquid fungicide add water to BSN Seed Primer first. (Always BSN + Water + Fungicide)
- Rhizobial inoculates should NOT be mixed with BSN Seed Primer.
When Priming Seed for Storage
- It is best, whterever possible, to use fresh seeds for priming. Older seeds may have a lower germination rate when stored under sub-standard, or less than ideal conditions.
- Seed viability (i.e. longevity) is maintained best when it is stored in a cool dry place.
- BSN Seed Primer can be applied to seeds any time between harvest and seeding. For the best result, prime seeds well before sowing time and if possible preferably during the dry season following harvest.
- Allow maximum ventilation to dry the primed seed-lot.
- Seeds stored at high temperature or in moist conditions run the risk of a reduced rate of germination. If seeds (especially rain-affected seeds) are stored for many months then they must be tested for germination suitability before treating with BSN Seed Primer.
- Contamination of wild radish seeds can drastically reduce germination rates. It is therefore best to make sure the stored seeds and silos are free from this contamination.
- Rain-affected seeds must pass the viability tests before being primed with BSN Seed Primer.
- When seeds are primed with a mixture of BSN Seed Primer and other chemicals there is no guarantee that the germination rate would be satisfactory over long-term storage. Germination tests are recommended before sowing if this is the case.
When Primming Seed at Seeding Time
- If seeds are primed at seeding time you may notice that the treated seed-lot volume increases by approximately 10%. (This is reversed quickly when seeds lose their extra (moisture). But when you drill treated seeds soon after treatment you may need to allow for increased seed volume if the volume increase is not yet fully reversed. It is always recommended that at least 24-hours is allowed between priming the seed with BSN Seed Primer and sowing.
Key Facts about BSN Seed Primer
- BSN primed seeds absorb (imbibes) water faster. This is due to the active ingredients in BSN Seed Primer breaking down the barriers to water penetration in the seed coat.
- The seed coat in cereal crops contain more than 50% of the total seed mineral nutrient reserves. BSN Seed Primer indices ion exchange in the seed coat releasing stored nutrients and facilitating utilisation by the seed embryo.
- BSN speeds up imbibition since it is an osmo-primer (i.e. draws water into the seed). The osmo-priming effect of BSN is due to its highly concentrated ortho-phosphate and trace elements.
- BSN Seed Primer is also a nutritional primer. It increases the level of essential elements in the grain from 2 to 10 times.
- BSN Seed Primer increases the available phosphorous (inorganic phosphorous) of seed by up to 350% compared to untreated seed. This is because some 70% of seed phosphorous is as phytic acid and is unavailable during early germination. The higher available phosphorous resulting from BSN Seed Primer is the most important factor 'kick-starting' the germination, by supplying energy for growth and setting higher yield potential.
- Optimum pH for phytase activity is about 4. The low pH of BSN Seed Primer stimulates phytase activity and converts more phytic acid (unavailable phosphate reserve of the seed) to available phosphate.
- With BSN Seed Primer increased biological activity in the rhizosphere is experienced. This is due to more exudation of metabolites from the root system, resulting in higher temperature in the root zone.
- The BSN increased rhizosphere activity and exudation of organic acids (i.e. ascitric acid) releases soil-based phosphate bound to calcium (in alkaline soils) or soil-based phosphate the is bound to aluminium, iron and manganese in acid soils.
- The BSN increased rhizosphere activity, and faster root growth protects roots from disease, in contrast to disease susceptibility in a slow growing root system.
- Research shows that phosphorous and most trace elements are suboptimal and variable in seed-lots and have a greater impact on yield of late sown crops.
The key facts and findings listed above support the visual responses seen in seedlings and their rhizosphere
when treated with BSN Seed Primer. Such changes translate to increased yield at harvest. With late planting
and lower temperature zones (usually well below the optimum range of 12°C to 25°C) the speedy germination and
establishment allows the crop to intercept and utilise soil nutrients faster.
Compatibility Matrix
Many farmers ask what chemicals can be mixed with liquid products that contain trace elements.
Whilst we recommend that to obtain the best result from any chemical, it should be applied individually, we are fully aware of many farm practices that include mixing chemicals to reduce application costs.
From anecdotal evidence gathered from farmers who have mixed various chemicals with RLF products, at the time of application, we have compiled the following list of products that have been reported to be mixed successfully:
PLEASE NOTE:
- Do NOT composite mix more than one of the above with foliar products
- BSN-range and Ultra Foliar products are not compatible with Inoculants.
- When BSN seed priming treatment is to be applied with fungicides, BSN which is imbided by the seed should be used first followed by fungicides that stick to the seed surface.

Active Ingredient:
RLF Product:
- c = chemically compatible based on reference to The Pesticide Manual published by the British Crop Protection Council (BCPC)
- p = physically compatible when mixed as per RLF Tank Mixing Guide;
- b = biologically compatible, no observable or measurable reduction in pesticide bioefficacy or loss of nutrition;
- h = chemical, physical and biological compatibility based on reference to RLF Crop Nutrition Handbook (ca. 2004), RLF Technical Bulletin TB61 and RLF Website - http://www.ruralliquidfertilisers.com/compatibility;
- nd = no data
- 1 = Total mixture [product + water] shoudl not exceed 600mL / 100kg of seed;
- 2 = Reduction in bioefficacy may occur at pH < 4, severity increasing with lower pH;
- 3 = Reduction bioefficacy may occur at pH > 7
- 4 = Reduction in bioefficacy will occur at pH > 7, severity increasing with higher pH;
- 5 = Reduction in bioefficacy will occur at pH > 9;
- 6 = Refer to pesticide label for restraints on directions for use;
- 7 = Limited evidence suggests poor physical compatibility with RLF BSN products, check compatibility via a jar-test before mixing larger volumes;
- 8 = Mixing with RLF CSF products may cause excessive copper uptake by vines;
- 9 = Very rapid degradation of active ingredient will occur in acidic solutions, DT50 < 1 hr at pH 5;
- 10 = Pesticide active ingredient is formulated as an ionic salt; mixing with RLF products can result in precipitation of insoluble salts and/or reduction in bioefficacy due to interaction with positive and negative ions in the liquid fertiliser formulation;
- 11 = Pesticide is formulated at an alkaline pH; mixing with low pH RLF products can result in generation of heat from exothermic neutralisation reaction;
- 12 = Pesticide label indicates incident phytotocity or transient yellowing if applied to stressed plants; this effect may be enhanced in tank mixes with RLF CSF products but it is likely plants will recover more quickly due to improved nutrition;
- 13 = Photolycally unstable; pesticide active ingredient will rapidly degrade in aqueous solution in sunlight
- H = herbicide
- I = insecticide
- IGR = insect growth regulator; effectively an insecticide but controls insects by interrupting a specific phase of its life cycle, instead of biological toxicity.
- F = fungicide
- PGR = plant growth regulator
- SAF = crop safener; added to herbicide formulations to limit activity on non-target crop species
- ADJ = adjuvant; added to pesticide formulations to increase efficacy, improve tank mix compatibility etc.
- SYN = synergist; added to pesticides (usually insecticides) to enhance performance through chemical or biological synergy of action.
