2022 TRIAL RESULTS SHOWED FIELDER’S SEED TREATMENT “KICK-OFF” RETURNED YIELD IMPROVEMENTS OF +7.3%
Our ambition to bring the latest innovations in crop nutrition and plant health was demonstrated up by successful trial work done this summer 2022 on our seed treatment product Kick-Off. The balanced blend of phosphites, manganese, micro-nutrients and biostimulants in Kick-Off returned a yield improvement of +7.3% vs untreated areas of winter wheat.
The Results
- ROI 19:1 in recent trials / incremental £196 / ha – for example over 50 hectares this was worth an incremental £9,300 profit (using price of £285 / tonne wheat in Aug 2022)
- Yield improvements of 0.7 tn / ha (+7.3%) of wheat treated with Kick-Off vs untreated
- Reduces need for Mn foliar application – £15/ha saving
- Trials work demonstrated no yield loss when applying 50 kg less of N / ha
- University of York trials work showed Kick-Off delivered better germination and root biomass results than other selected biostimulant treatments

Further Benefits of Kick-Off
- Root biomass can improve by as much as +300%
- Inexpensive insurance policy
- Phosphite – very mobile and helps plant to establish quickly
- Phosphorous – typically hard for roots to access in the soil so an excellent source of nutrient
- Biostimulant Amino Acids – all plant derived so easily absorbed by the seed
- Zn inclusion – vigour, cell wall strength and protein building
- Potassium – resists drought, cell growth and elongation
