A unique, sterile, on-farm seed treatment, consisting of a high quality rhizobial inoculant with a biological fungicide for use on soybeans and peanuts

Product Information
HiStick N/T is a ready-to-use seed treatment. This product has been formulated to provide high numbers of an effective nitrogen-fixing bacterium and a unique isolate of the bacterium Bacillus amyloliquefaciens (i.e., strain MBI 600) that suppresses fungal root disease organisms such as Fusarium and Rhizoctonia. This product is hermetically sealed. After opening pack, squeeze gently to disperse contents. This product is crop specific. Please refer below for crop use and application rate.

USE RESTRICTIONS
DO NOT use treated seed for food or feed purposes or process for oil. Treat only those seeds needed for immediate use, minimizing the interval between treatment and planting. DO NOT store excess treated seeds beyond planting time. If treated seeds are not planted within 24 hours, they must be reinoculated.
This product is for use ONLY with crop(s) named on the front panel.

Mixing and Application Instructions
HiStick N/T can be applied using any of the following methods:SLURRY INOCULATION (soybeans): Add this product at a rate of 2.8 ozs per 5.4 fl ozs of clean, dechlorinated water, and stir well in a clean container to form a lump-free slurry. Not allowing slurry to settle-out, pour slurry onto seed and mix thoroughly to ensure all seed is evenly coated. Allow seed to dry in a shaded area for at least 15 to 20 minutes before placing in seed hopper. DAMP INOCULATION (soybeans): Apply just enough clean, dechlorinated water to slightly dampen the seed (1.5 fl ozs of water per 50 lbs seed [approximately 2 mL of water per 1 kg of seed]). Mix the dampened seed thoroughly with this product so that the seeds are evenly coated.
DRY INOCULATION (soybeans and peanuts): Pour the correct amount of this product onto thin layers (approximately every 3 to 6 inches) of seed in drill hopper, and mix thoroughly by hand using a stirring device to evenly coat seed. For bulk seed handling systems, the product can be metered directly onto augered seed.
APPLICATION (soybeans): For suppression of root diseases caused by Rhizoctonia and Fusarium, and for improved rhizobial nodulation.
On Old Rotated Soybean Land:
• On pesticide-treated seed or untreated seed, use this product at the rate of 2.8 ozs per 100 lbs of seed. On New Soybean Land:
• On seed that has not been pesticide treated (or that has been treated with Syngenta products such as Apron Maxx RTA, Apron XL, or Maxim 4FS), use a rate of 5.6 ozs per 100 lbs of seed.
• With other pesticide-treated seed, use a rate of 11.2 ozs per 100 lbs of seed.
APPLICATION (peanuts): For suppression of root diseases caused by Rhizoctonia, Fusarium and Aspergillus, and for improved rhizobial nodulation. Use this product at a rate of 14 ozs per 100 lbs of peanut seed under adverse planting conditions (hot/dry soils) and/ or on land not previously planted to this legume. For all other situations not described in the previous sentence, use this product at a rate of 7 ozs per 100 lbs of peanut seed.
