CKC VETCH contains Rhizobium leguminosarum which provides plants with bio-available nitrogen (N), promoting root and vegetative development. N is required for chlorophyll production and amino acid synthesis.

Application

First prepare a slurry with inoculant and 150 cc of clean water with 2 to 3 spoons of sugar. Use eccentric shaft rotating drums with interior fixed blades. It is recommended to place the seeds half the capacity of the drum and then apply half of the slurry smoothly rotated. Add the remaining broth and seeds; gently roll the drum for uniform application across the surface of the treated seeds. Leave to air in cool place away from sunlight and proceed with planting. Calibrate the planter with seed treated for it to flow more slowly
