AccuSeed = Accurate Plant Populations Phil Thomas, Senior Agri-Coach has been talking for several years about a concept called OPD or Optimum Plant Density. “We have been working with growers to ensure that they pay more attention to the quality and quantity of seed they are sowing. Generally cereals densities could be raised while in canola we would like to see a greater degree of…
AccuSeed Seed Bulking TrialObjective: Investigate the use of AccuSeed granular elemental sulphur (S) as a seed-bulking agent to assist in reducing canola seeding rates. Background: One way to increase a crop’s ability to fight disease while reducing lodging and overall crop height is to decrease plant population. Download Now!
AccuSeed: Seed Bulking Technology for Accuracy and ProfitSeeding technology has advanced with the dawn of AccuSeed. AccuSeed bulking technology allows the grower to accurately apply canola seed and other small seeded crops with little worry about over or under applications with their seeding operations.

Bulk Up Canola Seed for More Accurate Seeding RatesUsing seed bulking agents for more accurate seeding is not a new concept. Growers who used Counter 5G or Furadan granular for flea beetle control knew that additional material in the seed box helped with more accurate seeding rates. Now, the Canola Council of Canada has demonstrated that other seed bulking materials can do the same thing. Download…
MicroSite Enhanced Technology: How it WorksTiger Micronutrients® fertilizers began in the lab in Calgary, Canada, where Tiger-Sul Products tested the theory of taking extremely fine metal oxide particles, and incorporating them into a conversion matrix. This provides uniform distribution and quick conversion to the plant available sulphate form. The result – the development of TIGER MICRONUTRIENTS® fertilizers as a new…
Target the Optimum Hybrid Canola Seeding RateAlways on the look out for ways to reduce input costs, many growers have shaved hybrid canola seeding rates with the belief that hybrid vigour would look after the reduced plant populations. While that theory has some validity, seeding rates can hit a threshold where plant populations are too low to provide a stable yield platform for the…
Preseason Applied Sulphur for Top Yields and QualityTypically sulphur is applied in the spring as a blend with ammonium sulphate as a seed row application. Another option is to apply Tiger 90CR® Sulphur in the fall or early spring as a surface broadcast application. This method exposes the sulphur particles allowing for maximum degradtion and release during the growing season. Download Now!
Blind Study – Sulfur Formulation TestsIn an independent, blind sulphur field test conducted over two years, Tiger 90CR® Sulphur provided the best degradation and conversion to sulphate compared to any other bentonite sulphur product tested. Download Now!
The True Value of Sulphur Sulphur is an essential nutrient for plant growth and provides many benefits such as increased nitrogen utilization, improved phosphate and micronutrient uptake (high pH soils), increased chlorophyll production, protein, oil, and vitamin production. Download Now!
Optimize Sulphur Fertility with TIGER 50CR Sulphur/SulphateTiger-Sul believes sulphur needs to be managed for optimum plant growth. Tiger’s degradable sulphur fertilizers incorporated into a well-balanced fertility program can provide a season long sulphur supply that minimizes losses. Tiger 50CR® sulphur/sulphate is a blend of ammonium sulphate and Tiger 90 CR® sulphur, that is designed for efficiency and is part of their “Sulphur Management Program™.” Download…
