Introducing UAS ZN+: High-Performance Zinc Seed Treatment
Introducing UAS ZN+: High-Performance Zinc Seed Treatment
Early season performance sets the tone for yield potential.
That’s why Unified Ag Solutions developed UAS ZN+, a high-performance zinc seed treatment built to deliver immediate zinc availability at emergence — when crops need it most.
Zinc plays a critical role in early plant development. But in many soils across the Midwest and beyond, early-season zinc availability can be limited. UAS ZN+ is designed to close that gap.
What Is UAS ZN+?
UAS ZN+ is a highly concentrated zinc seed treatment delivering 5.78 lbs. of actual Zinc (Zn) per gallon.
Formulated for performance and efficiency, UAS ZN+ gives crops immediate access to soluble zinc at the most critical stage — emergence and early root development.
It’s a smart, cost-effective way to address early season zinc demands across all soil types.
Why Early Zinc Matters
Zinc supports key physiological processes including:
Root and shoot growth
Early vigor
Enzyme activation
Stress tolerance
If zinc is limited early, yield potential can be restricted before the season truly begins. By delivering zinc directly on the seed, UAS ZN+ ensures the crop has access to this critical micronutrient immediately after planting.
Immediate Access. Stronger Start.
Traditional soil-applied zinc can be tied up, diluted, or unavailable when young roots need it most. Seed-applied zinc changes that.
Because UAS ZN+ is placed directly on the seed:
Zinc is positioned exactly where roots first develop
Soluble Zn is available at emergence
Early growth stress can be reduced
Germination can improve
This targeted delivery improves establishment and supports stronger early season growth.
Performance Backed by Field Results
In a two-year summary trial across Wisconsin, Illinois, and Iowa (2017–2018), UAS ZN+ demonstrated measurable performance gains.
Corn yield results showed:
Base: 195.5 bu/acre
UAS ZN+: 197.8 bu/acre
Field performance metrics also indicated improved vigor and stand compared to the control.
Small advantages early can translate into meaningful yield impact at harvest.
Flexible, Compatible & Easy to Integrate
UAS ZN+ is designed to work seamlessly within your existing seed treatment program.
Compatible with most fungicides and insecticides
Can be applied as an overcoat treatment
Low use rates make it easy to incorporate without compromising overall treatment viability
Because of its concentration and efficiency, UAS ZN+ allows you to add micronutrient support without jeopardizing the cost or compatibility of your full treatment package.
Recommended Use Rates
UAS ZN+ seed treatment rates include:
Corn: 4–6 fl oz/cwt
Soybeans: 2 fl oz/cwt
Barley, Rice & Wheat: 2–6 fl oz/cwt
Legumes & Large Seeded Vegetables: 2–4 fl oz/cwt
As always, consult your local UAS representative for specific mixing order and application instructions.
Built for All Soil Types
Zinc deficiency can show up in:
High pH soils
Cool, early planting conditions
Sandy or low organic matter fields
UAS ZN+ provides a reliable, seed-applied zinc source that supports early plant nutrition regardless of soil variability.
When early growth is protected, the crop can focus on maximizing yield potential.
Why Seed-Applied Zinc Makes Sense
Adding zinc through a seed treatment approach:
Places nutrients directly at the seed zone
Reduces reliance on soil movement
Improves early availability
Supports uniform emergence
And because UAS ZN+ delivers 5.78 lbs. of actual Zn per gallon, you get concentrated performance in a low-use-rate formulation.
Stronger Starts Lead to Stronger Finishes
At Unified Ag Solutions, we focus on products that improve early season performance without complicating your treating process. UAS ZN+ was built with that mindset.
