AgEssentials S-01
A more robust plant is Essential.
Increases your soybean crop's ability to mitigate early-season stressors like cool, wet soils. Once applied, the live microbes in S-01 colonize the root system and enhance nutrient uptake — resulting in a larger, healthier plant from emergence through pod fill.

Better Beans. More Bushels. Higher ROI.
Why S-01
Six reasons it belongs on every bean
Stimulates Larger Root Mass
Live Bacillus subtilis microbes colonize the root system, improving bioavailability and uptake of key nutrients.
Regulates Moisture
Provides drought protection through flowering and pod fill — the moments that decide the season.
Mitigates Early-Season Stress
Built to handle cool, wet soils at emergence — keeping young soybeans on a healthier trajectory.
Overall Healthier Plant
Better roots, better nutrition, better-looking beans. A high-yielding crop starts with a high-quality plant.
Proven Yield Increase
152 third-party trials produced an average increase of 2.73 bushels per acre across 16 states.
Biological, Not Chemical
A live microbial seed treatment built to layer cleanly on top of your existing soybean program.
Field-proven
+2.73 bu/ac across 152 third-party trials
Independent trials across the soybean belt — MO, SD, ND, IA, MN, NC, IL, IN, KS, AR, OH, MS, NE, TN, KY, PA — measured the bushel-per-acre lift from a single S-01 seed treatment application in 2022 and 2023.
