If You Own a Sprayer, You Should Probably Own a Treater
If you’ve already invested in your own sprayer, chances are you value independence, flexibility, and control over your inputs.
So let’s cut to it—if that’s your mentality, why not treat your seed on-farm too?
Seed treating is the next logical step for operations that already apply their own crop protection. And with today’s box-to-box systems, it’s easier and more affordable than you might think.
1. You Already Think Like a Treater
Owning a sprayer means you understand application timing, product compatibility, and how to make agronomic decisions in real-time. A seed treater simply brings that same mindset to planting season—treating seed when you want, how you want, based on the current conditions and plans for each field.
You’re already used to managing your own chemistry. Treating seed yourself just makes sense.
2. Total Flexibility = Better ROI
On-farm treating lets you:
Adjust recipes by variety or customer
Respond to weather, pest threats, and last-minute changes
Only treat what you need—no waste, no waiting
It’s your seed. It should be your call.
And when you pair your treater with premium treatment options like N-Compass and Surpass, you get the flexibility to tailor products by crop, field, and goal.
3. Boost Your Bottom Line
Treating your own seed adds value, not just cost. In many cases, it can pay for itself in one to two seasons, especially if:
You already treat multiple seed types
You want to offer seed + treatment to customers
You’re tired of paying inflated per-unit rates for someone else to treat
And when you own a reliable, low-maintenance unit like the AT500, you’re not just getting control—you’re adding another revenue stream or cost-saving tool to your farm.
4. You’re Already Set Up for It
Own a sprayer? You’ve got tanks, pumps, scales, totes, hoses—you name it. The transition to treating isn’t as steep as it might seem.

5. Box-to-Box Makes It Easy

A small footprint
Simple controls
Consistent, professional results
It’s like the difference between custom spraying and owning your own rig. Once you switch, you wonder why you didn’t do it sooner.
