General Usage Information
(Please see label for full instructions.)
ALOSCA granules are a dry, clay-based, in-furrow legume inoculant that can be sown into dry or moist soil conditions and may be applied with most chemicals.
ALOSCA granules can be mixed/layered with fertiliser, seed or from a third box as long as it is delivered to the furrow in close proximity to the seed (deep or side banding not recommended).
For higher clay content soils, it is recommended ALOSCA granules are mixed/layered in the seed box with the seed to ensure good seed contact and that the full label rate be used.
Avoid over handling. Due to the friable nature of the product, it is recommended to minimise machinery transfers (augers, etc) of product to the seed/fertiliser box.

DESCRIPTION
- Standard Pack treats 50kg of coarse grain down to 25kg of small seed..
- Requires additional seed adhesive (StickA) to pellet seed.
- Sufficient inoculant for 1L of slurry.
General Usage Information:
(Please see label for full instructions.) Nodule N peat inoculant
Product storage: keep refrigerated before application and cool/ high humidity post application to seed.
Mix using clean chemical residue-free containers and fresh water, avoid chlorinated/scheme water.
Sow treated seed within 24 hours of application to seed, ideally within five hours.
The use of StickA seed adhesive will help protect the inoculant from drying out and perishing. This is of greater importance with smaller seeded pasture species that are sown closer to the surface.
Sowing into dry soil is not recommended for this product.

DESCRIPTION
- One size 30ml glass vial treats 500kg coarse grain.
- Freeze-dried product should always be applied with seed protectant adhesive sachet 1 per vial (~100g).
- Sufficient inoculant for 5L of slurry per vial.
- Idea for coating seed prior to seeding or direct liquid in-furrow injection.
- A 30ml glass vial treats 200kg of sub-clover (larger seed types) or 100kg of smaller seed types such as Balansa or Persian Clovers.
General Usage Information
(Please see label for full instructions.)
An additional 30 legume strains are available in the EasyRhiz range including a broad range of forage legume strains and many subtropical and tropical strains. Contact us to discuss.
EasyRhiz is supplied in two parts which are combined before use:
- A glass 30ml (or with some pasture types 16ml) vial
- 100g sachet of protectant powder
Product storage: vials should be stored between 4°C and 10°C out of direct sunlight. DO NOT FREEZE EasyRhiz vials.
Mix using clean, chemical residue free containers and fresh water, avoid chlorinated/scheme water and salty water.
Once mixed as per instruction, allow to stand for two to three hours to allow Rhizobia culture to recuperate from the freeze drying process.
Seed (slurry) application
Sow treated seed within 5 hours. Use supplied EasyRhiz Protectant (sachet) as per instructions. Store in cool/ high humidity post-application to seed.
In-furrow injection
Apply with 50 to 200 litres of water per hectare. Higher water rates will deliver a better outcome in dryer soil conditions and give better furrow distribution.
It is important that the injected inoculant solution contacts the seed as it is sown. Avoid banding away from the seed. Sowing into dry soil is not recommended for this product.
Sowing into dry soil is not recommended for this product.
Seed Adhesive
General Usage Information
(Please see label for full instructions.)
Mix using clean chemical residue free containers and fresh water (avoid chlorinated/scheme water and salty water).
When using as a standalone slurry, that is without pelleting lime, use at a rate of no more than 2% w/w (20g per litre of water).This will reduce the likelihood of all your seed sticking together in your seed box or inoculation mixer.
When using to form lime pellets (lime pelleting seed) with milled limestone, use no less than 10% w/w (100g per litre) up to a maximum of 20%w/w (200g/litre of water). The higher the %w/w usage the more durable your formed pellet will be.
If you plan to handle the pelleted seed more than once or twice then a minimum 15% w/w should be used.
Use warm/hot water to dissolve adhesive but ensure water has cooled to less than 30°C before adding inoculant peat culture.
Milled/powered limestone is the most cost-effective lime pelleting material. Do not use Hydrated Lime(other names for Hydrated Lime: Marvelime, Hy-Lime, SlakedLime, Industrial Hydrated Lime, Chemical Hydrated Lime.
Brickies Lime – do not use for lime pelleting.
