SEED COATING WITH MICRONUTRIENTS
Improve early root growth and crop resilience with seed-applied micronutrients
Why Seed Coating?
Seed-applied micronutrients support early root growth and crop resilience by delivering zinc,manganese and copper directly to the seed.
These nutrients support early growth by:
- Helping enzymes work efficiently
- Supporting hormone balance and growth
- Strengthening early root development
When nutrients are coated onto the seed, they are available right from germination, even in dry or nutrient-poor soils.

Differences observed between treated and untreated seeds:
- Longer secondary roots, supported by zinc, manganese, and copper
- Denser root system — soil around roots stays moist and clings more tightly
- Slightly taller plants at the same growth stage
- Greener lower leaves — better tolerance to dry conditions
Backed by Data: Real Farm Trials
Proven performance in real farm trials
Our seed-applied micronutrients have been tested across multiple crops and growing conditions. Field trials show clear benefits in early growth and yield.

Practical Advantages for Coating and Handling
Supports early crop growth
Zinc, manganese, and copper help activate growth enzymes and form stronger roots from the start.
Prevents seeds from sticking
No clumping — seeds stay free-flowing for smooth handling and sowing.
Excellent flowability
Works with most seed coating and sowing equipment without clogging.
Mixes easily with other products
Compatible with common seed treatment products and fertiliser coatings.
Easy to apply
Use 2–4 L per 1000 kg of seed — suitable for many crops and machines.
Made in the EU from recycled materials
Micronutrients come from European side streams and are processed under strict quality standards.
Seed Coating Products
Tracegrow’s micronutrient fertilisers are available as liquid seed coatings. These CE-certified products are easy to apply and compatible with most seed treatment systems.
