Prior to field planting 65,000 seedling plugs were each watered with 2ml of a Unite suspension at 10g/lt. At the same time a control group of 65,000 seedling plugs were watered with clean water.
The celery crop was harvested and the total yield and class was measured.
Yields showed a cost benefit of $3081 / ha by drenching seedlings with Unite prior to field transplantation.
