Treating cover crop seed with BioCoat Gold and SeedFlare. @AdvancingEcoAgriculture

We've been observing that successful growers manage their cover crops as fastidiously as their cash crops. That includes:
- Inoculating cover crop seed
- Amending soil before planting
- Foliar spraying to correct nutrient deficiencies

And really, if you're relying on cover crops for such critical services as weed suppression, nutrient cycling, biology enhancement, and improved soil structure, then pampering them pays off.

Cole Neese explains how he gets the best possible stand of cover crops by treating cover crop seed with AEA's 2 seed treatments: BioCoat Gold and SeedFlare.

$Ask Me Anything with John Kempf - July 10 , 2026 In this Ask Me Anything format, John will provide insights and practical solutions to help you achieve healthier, more resilient crops. Topics discussed: Managing nutrition and the microbiome through AEAs integrated approach to help achieve crop resistance to spotted wing drosophila in berries. Reducing pecan scab and weevil pressure by balancing trace minerals and applying AEA products like Pinion and PhotoMag. Evaluating plant metabolism and internal health by measuring sugar levels, EC, and pH/EH homeostasis on a sap analysis. Managing almond bloom diseases and pests like navel orange worm using AEAs Pinion alongside targeted applications of calcium and boron. Executing safe foliar applications of solubilized urea by managing overall solution concentration and electrolyte levels to prevent crop leaf burn. Improving late-season calcium absorption in fruit crops through soil shading and foliar boron applications. Pre-blending AEA nutritional products before spraying to create a synergistic response because the formulations are designed to support living biology. Addressing insect pests like the apple borer using a foliar combination of AEAs PhotoMag, Rejuvenate, and Rebound Boron. Mitigating crop damage from herbicide drift using AEA products like SeaStim, MacroPak, MicroPak, HoloCal, and Rebound minerals to bind chelating herbicide molecules. Utilizing micronized mineral products like AEAs Accelerate and HoloCal to deliver fast results as leaf-surface microbes rapidly metabolize the minerals. Generating disproportionate crop responses in soil by fertigating and feeding rhizosphere microbes with the same consistency as foliar feeding. Increasing lipid levels in pasture forage through adequate soil levels of calcium, sulfur, and boron combined with strategic grazing management. Understanding how high sodium and chloride accumulation distorts refractometer brix readings by inflating total dissolved solids rather than indicating pure sugar content.
