Better phosphate uptake with BioniQ
Early vigour - If early-season phosphate availability is limited, it can reduce early-season growth and, ultimately, crop yield. Early spring conditions, including cool soils, are difficult on plants, especially when phosphate is not available. Because BioniQ is active under these conditions, phosphate availability is improved when your cereal and canola plant needs it.
Greater stress tolerance - Plants with larger healthy root systems have the ability to better withstand a variety of stresses such as drought and weed pressure. Healthy root systems help cereal and canola plants access moisture and nutrients more efficiently. BioniQ increases phosphate availability in all areas of the soil that the root explores, not just around the fertilizer band, which helps promote more root growth.
The following graphs (from University of Manitoba research), show the increase in uptake of phosphate throughout the growing season when using JumpStart on wheat.
How the Technology Works
Three biological actives for improved availability and uptake of nutrients in a variety of soil conditions.

Application Rates
Open package only when ready to use. Use before expiration date. Apply this product only as specified on this label. Reference the specified application rate to determine the proper amount needed for seed.
Inoculate seed on-farm by adding and thoroughly mixing the entire contents of both Active Powder A (333 g) and Active Powder B (450 g) in the appropriate amount of water (refer to Table 1) prior to or during seeding.
- BioniQ can be applied utilizing commercial on seed application equipment.
- Applicators used previously for pesticides should be triple rinsed before being used for BioniQ application.
- BioniQ can be applied up to 60 days prior to seeding (depending on seed type) and can be used with
many different seed treatments.
