QuickRoots® seed inoculant provides statistical significant yield improvement over SabrEx™ and the base seed treatment on hybrid seed corn.

Table 1. QuickRoots® Yield Advantage (hybrid seed corn yield = bushels/acre)

¹All 3 means are significantly different from each other. ² There are 2 groups in which the means are not significantly different from one another.

QuickRoots is patented and a novel technology that is understood by the seed. QuickRoots products are composed of Trichoderma virens and Bacillus subtillus var. amyloiquefaciens which are live microorganisms that can quickly colonize and grow with the root as the plant develops.

The microorganisms in QuickRoots has been shown to increase availability of certain plant nutrients, QuickRoots can release plant available phosphorous from sources in the soil. Increase phosphorous availability has been shown to increase root mass, allowing the plant to explore a greater volume of soil. Increase plant nutrient availability will often lease to increase plant health and vigor which can translate into a yield response.

QuickRoots novel enzymes make soil nutrients plant available in the root zone. Ultimately, this increase in nutrient availability increases root mass, allowing the root to explore a greater volume of soil – the Key to Higher Yields.
