About this Series
An informative and insightful video series featuring Grant Borgward has been released for 2016.

It has been called FARMER TO FARMER with very good reason.

This series has been developed to enable farmers everywhere to draw knowledge and inspiration from a fellow farmer as well as to spread further the message of RLF products.

Grant Borgward talks about Setting your Crop for more Viable Tillers

Most farmers are unaware that they can actually fertilise their seed.

So when it come time to grow a healthy crop, they normally focus on base fertiliser and top up with nitrogen applications.

But before the crop even starts growing, we can actually put BSN Seed Primer technology into the seed and improve the levels of phosphorous, zinc, copper, manganese and molybdenum to optimum levels, so that when the plant germinates it gets more access to more nutrients to help put on a larger root system.

This sets the plant up for much higher potential yield, and gives it the building blocks to put that larger root system on. It enables it to go down further to get greater access from the base fertiliser in the soil, and greater access to the storage area of nutrients whilst putting on more rapid top growth, and more importantly putting on more viable tillers.

Viable tillers are important because they stay with the plant and don’t waste energy.
