Unium have been a the forefront of biostimulant seed treatments for nearly 20 years, BOOST is a metabolite : nutrient complex designed to maximise seed germination, establishment, growth and development in a wide range of crops – cereals, maize, pulses, oilseed rape for example.

BOOST supports the growth and development of the young seedling as it emerges and establishes by maximising nitrogen and carbon metabolism along with providing key nutrients. BOOST is designed to :

  • Increase root and shoot biomass
  • Enhanced germination
  • Improved establishment
  • Increased overwintering tolerance
  • Increased stress tolerance

This will allow the crop to reach its maximum potential – we have to subsequently manage for that increased potential.

Our experience and expertise has created products that are 25+% better than the market leaders whilst striving for further improvements (Nottingham University 2017/2018).
