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.
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
- Do not auger 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
Liquid Application
TagTeam® liquid should be applied directly to the seed at a rate of 2.5 fluid ounces per bushel (278 ml/100 kg) of seed.
- Pour the wettable powder directly into the liquid bladder. Mix well.
- Once mixed in bladder the liquid must be applied to the seed within 24 hours
- Apply directly to the seed at a rate of 278 ml/100 kg of seed
- Planting window on bare lentil and pea seed is 48 hours
