Chandler crop products impact yields and plant health using naturally occurring enzymes and plant compounds. These products are non-toxic when used as recommended and may be used for corn, soybeans, wheat and other small grains, fruits and vegetables, alfalfa and other forages and many other types of crops.
Chandler Biocat 1000: A liquid enzyme product applied directly on crop residue after harvest. It contains micronutrients and naturally occurring enzymes, proteins and amino acids that help to accelerate the residue decay process and release nutrients for use by the next crop.
Chandler Dry Seed Treat is a dry enzyme seed treatment applied directly to the seed at planting. It contains micronutrients and naturally occurring enzymes, proteins, and amino acids that are designed to enhance germination, root development, and nutrient uptake to promote higher crop yields.
Chandler Foliar is a non-toxic liquid spray that contains enzymes, biostimulants and chelated micronutrients. It promotes efficient plant growth by increasing cell division and enhancing the photosynthesis process.
Chandler Liquid Seed Treat is an enzyme seed treatment applied directly to the seed at planting. It contains micronutrients and naturally occurring enzymes, proteins, and amino acids that are designed to enhance germination, root development, and nutrient uptake to promote higher crop yields.
Chandler Organic is a liquid biological soil conditioner that combines the ingredients of Chandler Foliar and Soil. The product may be applied to the soil or the plant foliage at the same rates used for Chandler Foliar or Soil.
Chandler Soil is a liquid biological soil conditioner that contains micronutrients, enzymes and other natural organic compounds that support the growth and metabolism of beneficial soil microbes. It is formulated to improve soil health and fertility, reduce compaction and improve crop yields.
Unlike some other companies, we are not selling a complete system or package that requires you to make big adjustments in the way you manage your crops. Over the years, one of our main goals has been to fit the Chandler products into individual farming operations.
Many of our long-term customers started with Chandler Dry Seed Treat because it has a low per-acre cost (about $1 per acre on corn) and they are already using talc or graphite to help seeds flow through their planter or drill. Also, the initial benefits of Dry Seed Treat can be seen in the root system soon after germination, and the product has a relatively higher return on investment.
Although the individual products are designed to enhance different functions of the soil and the plant, the products work together to provide mutual benefits. For example, Biocat 1000 reduces problems with seedling emergence by breaking down residue in the seed row. Also, the improvements in soil structure provided by Chandler Soil help plant roots to penetrate deeper into the soil profile. For these reasons, many of our customers routinely use two or more of the Chandler crop products in combination.
Many of our users apply Chandler Soil and Biocat 1000 at the pint (16 ounce) per acre rate in order to get the most effective results, and the per-acre cost of Dry Seed Treat depends on the seeding rate. For corn, soybeans, and most small grains, you can apply all three Chandler crop products for less than $20 per acre under our seasonal discount programs.
