Seed Treatments

The key to increasing your profitability is by
unleashing your seeds full potential. The Great

Bend Coop believe’s that by giving your seed the

advantage it needs to emerge as fast and as uniform

as it can is key. We strive for a less than 48 hour

whole field emergence, which is key to maximizing
your full yield potential. We are currently studying

many seed treatments that can increase your stand,

emergence and overall yield. The Great Bend Coop
Research Plot is a key element of this study and

continues to prove the advantageous that seed

treatments give your crop.

Ascend from Winfield United works to

improve your overall stand and increases early
emergence. By accelerating the early stages of

germination, and quickening the cell division and

cell elongation, your crop is off to a fast more
uniform start. This uniform emergence is

exponentially important for controlling weeds and

most importantly at pollination. The Great Bend

Coop Research plot has many studies to prove this

faster and more uniform emergence which is key in
your increased profit.
