Treated Seed
This seed has been treated with insecticide and fungicide. Treated seeds contain a small and measured application of a crop protection product applied to the surface of the seed. The seeds and the young plants that grow from them are protected from insects and diseases during the time when they are most vulnerable. Treated seed helps improve crop health and vigor, it increases yield potential, and it can reduce the need for additional pesticide applications. Properly treated seed supports sustainable agriculture.
