Differences between B-Mox® priming and base coating

23 May 2025

This year we have also set up an extensive trial to visualize the differences in growth and development between base coating and B-Mox® priming. The trial was carried out at a grower in the southwest of the Netherlands. Hyfive B-Mox® primed was sown on the plot, with two rows of Hyfive with base coating in a number of beds for comparison.

The plot was sown on April 2. From that moment on, we have followed and recorded the development of the crops weekly - sometimes even twice a week. As in previous years, clear differences in growth are also visible this season (see photo series at the bottom of the article).

It is also valuable to hear these differences from growers themselves. For example, a grower told us that he ran out of seed during sowing and could no longer obtain B-Mox® primed seed. He was therefore forced to sow the last beds with base coating. At emergence, the difference between the rows with B-Mox® priming and those with base coating was clearly visible, 'right down to the line', according to the grower.

We notice that more and more growers are becoming convinced of the added value of B-Mox® priming. Practical experiences and tests continue to underline this positive development.
