TagTeam

TagTeam® biological inoculant

TagTeam® is a dual action inoculant tool combining the phosphate-solubilising microorganism Penicillium bilaii with nitrogen-fixing rhizobia bacteria. Together, they can create more fixed nitrogen, and better access to soil and fertiliser phosphate, providing higher yield potential in pulse crops.

TagTeam Technology

The synergy of the rhizobia bacteria and the soil fungus working together delivers increased phosphate efficiency and more fixed nitrogen. TagTeam's MultiAction performance delivers better results than using a single-action rhizobium inoculant plus more phosphate fertiliser, and is more convenient to use.

Easy application of Bayer TagTeam pulse inoculant using the AgSpray TagTeam Applicator

John Reichstein from Ag Spray Centre Goondiwindi talks to Graeme Sutton from Bayer SeedGrowth about the ease of using the Flash Vats TagTeam applicator to apply TagTeam peat based inoculants. They discuss the benefits of dry application to pulse seed compared to conventional slurry application.

Benefits

Improved fertiliser efficiency, and greater availability of soil and fertiliser phosphate

Enhanced nutrient capability, which supports roots and shoot growth

Greater opportunity for the development of nitrogen-fixing nodules

Increased nitrogen fixation through improved nodule formation
