AGROSTART®+ MYCO Lucerne Applied Seed Solution

AGROSTART® and AGROSTART®+ MYCO are the complete applied seed solutions to get your lucerne crop off the best possible start. With an innovative formula that use MAS Seeds® biostimulant as its foundation, AGROSTART® encourages mycorrhization to boost the crop all along the vegetation:

AGROSTART® offers inoculation and micro-nutrition to ensure optimal establishment and higher yields
AGROSTART®+ MYCO uses Glomus intraradices fungi to ensure a better regularity over time and space, thanks to better nutrient absorption, especially phosphorus.

How it works:

The symbiosis between Glomus intraradices and lucerne is beneficial for both the species:

The lucerne provides food and shelter for the fungus, ensuring its survival and growth.
The fungus shares its roots, greatly enhancing the lucerne’s ability to absorb nutrients, especially phosphorus and water.

The mycorrhiza increases phosphorus intake by about 300%*
