Premier Tech: Mastering Every Step for Superior AGTIV® Granular Inoculants

Premier Tech Growers and Consumers is proud to share that all AGTIV® granular inoculants feature Premier Tech peat granules, a testament to the company’s full integration of the production process of our finished goods.

For years, growers across North America have trusted AGTIV® granular inoculants for their reliability, ease of use, and consistent results. What sets AGTIV® apart? It’s not just the performance in the field—it’s the expertise and full control behind every granule. At Premier Tech, we are proud to say that we master every step of the process, ensuring that our products meet the highest standards of consistency and performance.

From Peat Harvesting to Inoculant Production: Total Autonomy

Premier Tech has achieved something few can claim: complete autonomy over the production of our peat granules. From the careful harvesting of Sphagnum peat moss to the manufacturing of robust granules to the development of inoculants, we control it all. This level of integration means that every AGTIV® granular inoculant is crafted with precision, meeting the needs of growers who demand reliability and quality.

Marc Béland, Agriculture Senior Director for North America, highlights this achievement: "By producing our own peat granules and mastering every step of the process, we deliver products that consistently perform at the highest standards. This autonomy reinforces our promise to provide dependable solutions to our partners and growers."

Why Complete Control Matters

  1. Consistency and Quality
    By managing every phase of production, we ensure that every granule is made to strict standards. From its structure and size to its durability and low-dust formulation, our granules are designed for smooth and precise application in the field. With 95% of particles measuring between 0.5 mm and 2.5 mm, they work seamlessly with standard seeding equipment.
  2. Preserving Biological Viability
    The natural properties of Sphagnum peat moss provide exceptional moisture retention, protecting the active ingredients until seeding. This guarantees that the biologicals—bacteria and fungi—are alive and effective when they reach the field, delivering superior agronomic performance.
  3. Reliable Supply Chain
    With complete ownership of the process, we ensure that every product is available when growers need it. By avoiding reliance on third-party suppliers, we eliminate risks that could disrupt production or compromise quality.

Craig Davidson, President of Taurus Ag Marketing, reflects on the importance of this integration: "We love when strong agronomics and reliable logistics come together. With Premier Tech producing their own peat granules and being a global leader in peat, we trust the quality and consistency in every bag. It’s what makes AGTIV® a top choice for progressive farms across millions of acres, delivering the best-handling granule and preserving biology all the way to the field."

A Proven Choice for Growers

Premier Tech peat granules have been successfully used on farms across North America for years. They’ve earned the trust of growers who expect seamless application and dependable results.

One Alberta grower shares: "This was our second year using AGTIV® granular inoculant, and it’s been a game-changer. The handling is way smoother... no issues with bridging or plugging up the tank. It’s easy to use, and we’ve seen great emergence both years."
