Product Overview
TagTeam® inoculant provides balanced nutrition by combining a nitrogen-fixing bacteria with Penicillium bilaiae (P. bilaiae), the active ingredient in JumpStart® inoculant. P. bilaiae is a naturally occurring soil fungus which grows along plant roots, releasing phosphate bound in the soil, making it more available for the crop to use. Phosphate is an important component that drives the needed energy for the nitrogen fixation process.
More Phosphate. More Nitrogen.
The synergy of the rhizobia bacteria and the soil fungus working together create more fixed nitrogen and better access to soil and fertilizer phosphate, providing the balanced nutrition necessary to maximize your crop’s yield potential.
How TagTeam® works
TagTeam uses a naturally occurring soil fungus for improved phosphate availability and beneficial rhizobia for increased nitrogen fixation.
Freeing Phosphate
-
Penicillium bilaiae releases bound mineral forms of soil and fertilizer phosphate, making it more available for the plant to use.
Beneficial Rhizobia
-
Specially selected rhizobia form a beneficial relationship with the plant, creating nodules which help fix atmospheric nitrogen.

APPLICATION INFO
Please read the label before application for complete use instructions.
PACKAGING & APPLICATION RATES
Granular Application
TagTeam® granular should be applied directly with the seed in the seed row using a granular tank for application. Application rates vary according to row spacing (refer to table).
-
Pour into tank through a screen
-
Fill the tank to match or slightly exceed seed requirements. Do not overfill the tank to avoid compaction
-
If augering TagTeam® granular, do so at low speeds to avoid damage to the granules
-
Do not mix TagTeam® in the same tank with seed or fertilizer
-
Do not leave TagTeam® granular in the tank overnight as condensation can cause lumps to form
Peat Application
TagTeam® peat has its own sticker in the formulation. A separate sticker is not needed. Apply TagTeam® to pre-moistened seed, or add water while applying TagTeam®, or mix TagTeam with cool, clean water and apply to seed as a slurry.
Please refer to the peat application rates table for approximate water rates. Once TagTeam® is mixed into water, apply to seed within six hours. TagTeam® peat can be applied up to 48 hours before seeding, depending on crop, and can be used with many different seed treatments. Visit URL for the most up-to-date seed treatment compatibility information.
Liquid Application
TagTeam liquid should be applied directly to the seed at a rate of 2.5 fluid ounces per bushel (75 ml/27 kg) of seed. Once applied to bare seed, plant within 48 hours.
