Our PCT | Sunrise® BioBuild®, Croprotek® and FolrFeed® product families are filled with crop nutrient products to help your farm operation with that mid-season momentum.
BioBuild products use multiple modes of action and bacteria strains to promote plant growth and reduce stress. These three BioBuild products are what we recommend during those early to mid growth stages.
FolrFeed products offer mid-season solutions for correcting nutrient deficiencies that are visible and invisible.
Croprotek products defend your crop from insects, weeds, diseases and nitrogen loss at varying growth stages. Out of the 11 Croprotek products PCT | Sunrise has to offer, these three products are great examples for your crop protection toolbox.
Our StandUp® and NutraBurst® product of families promote early plant health and adds micronutrients with customized crop nutrition blends.

Feed and Nourish Your Crop with FolrFeedFeed and nourish your crop with FolrFeed. Our FolrFeed® product line offers mid-season solutions for correcting nutrient deficiencies that are visible and invisible in corn, soybeans, alfalfa and vegetables. Foliars allow for immediate uptake of nutrients independent of soil pH or other environmental factors.
Corn Foliar LITE II: foliar-fed nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium with double chelated micronutrients (boron, manganese and zinc) and plant growth regulators.
Corn Foliar EXTRA: double the amount of foliar-fed nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium with double chelated micronutrients (boron, manganese and zinc) and plant growth regulators.
Corn Foliar ZAMBI II: a liquid foliar fertilizer with double chelated zinc, manganese, and boron, designed to increase the number of rows around corn ears.
FoliarMix Zn: foliar-fed nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium with double chelated micronutrients and plant growth regulators plus double chelated Zinc.
Soy Foliar BAM II: a liquid foliar fertilizer with double chelated boron and manganese.
Soy Foliar LITE II: foliar-fed nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium with double chelated micronutrients (boron and manganese) and plant growth regulators.
Soy Foliar EXTRA II: double the amount of foliar-fed nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium with double chelated micronutrients (boron and manganese) and plant growth regulators.
SWEET UREA LIQUOR: a liquid plant nutrient mixture of nitrogen and sugar.
Our FolrFeed blends are convenient to use and apply. They can be mixed with other products and are highly compatible with most tank mix partners. Local experts stand behind these products and their performance.

Top Three Foliar Feeding Products to Fuel Crop Health & High YieldsWhile it’s difficult to predict what the growing season holds, it’s important to approach each one with a mindset of maximizing yields and profits. This is especially key during challenging years when every bushel counts.
Looking ahead to the summer months, researchers at The Ohio State University predict diseases such as frogeye leaf spot in soybeans, gray leaf spot, Northern corn leaf blight and tar spot (a more recent disease occurrence in Ohio) have potential to be problematic in 2019. Many growers know that to stay ahead of disease, insect and weed infestations, one must scout and use timely applications of a crop protection product. Many may not be aware of the benefits that foliar feeding our crops can add to the mix.
PCT | Sunrise® FolrFeed® products are a critical part of filling in nutrition gaps left by traditional fertilizers. They stimulate growth and overall plant health so crops can better tolerate stress from weather, diseases and other yield challenging environments. To experience the best results, foliar feed applications should be applied during the V4-V7 stages in corn and V3-V5 in soybeans. Most can be tank mixed with a post-emergence herbicide or other crop protection products for application efficiency.
PCT | Sunrise® offers several custom options as part of the FolrFeed® and NutraBurst® lineup. Here’s a quick look at the top three to fuel yield potential and healthy plants this season:
This is a must have for late-planted soybeans, since beans planted after April grow faster due to warmer temperatures. Plants that grow too quickly may not be able to take in the nutrients needed to combat stress and diseases. Soy Foliar LITE fuels development and disease resistance with a mix of N-P-K, boron, manganese, growth promoters and sugars. This formula reduces lodging, supports nodule development, plant branching and flower retention, while stimulating the plant’s immune system.
Growers who use glyphosate for post applications on soybeans should consider NutraBurst® Manganese 5%. Manganese is important for photosynthesis and strong vegetative development. Since glyphosate has the potential to tie up manganese in plants, a foliar feed of this type can help offset potential deficiencies.
ZAMBI is a mix of zinc, manganese and boron, with added plant growth regulators, in all promotes kernel-row development on ears and is critical for developing strong roots. This is worth considering for growers who may not have used zinc in their starter fertilizer or through commercial seed treatment.
