More uniform and faster plant

emergence for higher yield security.

INITIO is a micronutrient seed coating containing manganese (Mn) and zinc (Zn) that gives bean and spinach seeds a strong start. After extensive trialing over several years, INITIO’s effects are obvious: faster emergence, more uniform crop establishment, and higher plant counts. INITIO improves nutrient intake and enhances fine-root development in the early growth stage.

Better tolerance to harsh

conditions with INITIO.

Thanks to better early nutrition, growers are seeing improvements in crop establishment, early-season growth, and the ability to withstand challenging growing conditions. Our trials with bean crops in different locations in Europe show increased vigor in 66% of cases compared to untreated seeds. When looking at spinach in Europe, we can confirm a higher plant emergence with KWS INITIO in 75% of trials.
