Seed /lb is not an exact number; it is an average from multiple samples harvested over a wide geography.

Seeding rate is a suggestion based on drill-seeding in ideal conditions and fungicide/insecticide treated seed. Planting non-treated seed is not recommended. Seeding rate should be increased by a minimum of 10 lbs/A when using non-treated seed, planting into a rough seedbed, water-seeding, high pH soils and soils with salinity issues.

Nitrogen rate is a suggested rate based on a two-way split nitrogen application with the first application being applied on dry soil.

PVL01, the first Provisia rice seed variety available on the market, provides tolerance to Provisia herbicide from BASF. This popular variety is known for promoting “the cleanest fields” — giving farmers the unique opportunity to integrate multiple rice systems in their fields and complementing the existing Clearfield® Production System for effective rotation practices. A stewardship program of the Provisia Rice System and the Clearfield Production System for rice and soybeans on a three-year rotation helps ensure sustainable management of resistant rice types and annual grasses.

For the last few years, multiple areas throughout the South, but especially south Louisiana, south Arkansas, and northeast Arkansas, have been in a crisis mode dealing with ALS-resistant weedy rice and grasses. The Provisia® Rice System was developed to address this crisis as well as to extend the life of Clearfield rice. The Provisia Rice System is the ideal companion system to the Clearfield® Production System for rice, providing farmers with another effective tool to manage weedy rice, providing farmers with another effective tool to manage weedy rice, red rice, and grasses that have developed resistance to multiple modes of action.
