Get a Biological Boost with BioBuild. Our BioBuild^® Family of products uses multiple modes of action and bacteria strains to promote plant growth and reduce stress. Beneficial microbes, biologicals and organic acids help plants break dormancy, deal with environmental challenges and ensure sound nutrition throughout the growing season.

BioCape: microbial inoculant plus an enzyme for dry fertilizer impregnation aimed at improving nutrient uptake and microbial soil health. 

BioComplete II: a blend of over two dozen various strains of beneficial microbes that enhance plant health and vigor. This product is designed to increase flower production, healthier and more vigorous root systems along with phosphate solubilization and nitrogen fixation. 

BioSpray II:a specifically designed bio-stimulant technology containing a beneficial microbial team for producers who do not have in-furrow delivery capability.

C-Green Amino+ II: a seaweed extract fortified with organic acids in combination with N-amino acids + a soil penetrating agent to help any plant mitigate stress. 

Digester: a highly concentrated blend of beneficial microorganisms specifically formulated to reduce recent crop residue. 

N198 w/MIC Nitrogen Management Aid: a select group of concentrated beneficial microbes with an organic food source applied as a nitrogen management aid coupled with the micronutrients boron, copper, zinc, manganese and molybdenum for enhanced early growth, vigor and to develop a larger root mass in a corn crop. 

Nourish 10S: combination of sulfonated humic and fulvic acids.

Soy BioST+R: combines a select group of concentrated beneficial microbes with an organic food source applied as a seed treatment inoculant.

SUN-5: a 5% fulvic acid plant nutritional product. 

Biozolve: a blend of over two dozen “beneficial” strains of microorganisms with an affinity for organic solids.

Manure MGR: comprised of over 25 strains of microorganisms that thrive by degrading livestock manure in waste pits and lagoons. It’s 100% natural and safe to use.

BioBuild^® products are safe and easy to use. Application timing, rates and restrictions vary with each product. Contact a PCT | Sunrise representative for more information about giving your crops a biological boost with our BioBuild family of products.

Farmers trying to push corn and soybean yields to the max should consider the impact of crop stress and develop a plan to minimize its effects. In the spring, cool, wet weather limits germination, plant stands and can lead to poor nodulation in soybeans. During growth, prolonged periods of heat can lead to moisture loss in the soil causing stress to the crop. In fact, just four consecutive days of hot, dry weather could reduce corn yields by 5-10%.

By the time farmers spot leaf rolling in their corn crop or flipped leaves in their soybeans, it could be too late to reverse the damage.

One way to stay ahead of unpredictable weather and stress is with PCT | Sunrise® BioBuild™ C-Green. C-Green is a rich mix of naturally occurring growth stimulators – including seaweed extract, organic acids and trace minerals – that encourage development of large, vigorous root systems. This helps ensures proper nutrient uptake during early-season growth.

Later in the season, it also benefits crops during critical reproduction stages by promoting lateral branching, flower formation, flower retention and pod development in soybeans. In corn, C-Green stimulates pollen shed, tube formation and while keeping silk tubes viable. Ensuring plants are in peak health during this time can translate to more bushels at harvest.

For best results, C-Green can be used in-furrow as an on-seed starter, 2×2 and/or applied as a foliar during V3-R1 (corn) and V3- R2 (soybeans) at least two weeks prior to a stress event. Since Mother Nature is unpredictable, using it as a preventative provides a low cost “insurance policy” to keep crops healthy and on track for high yield potential.
