Regenerative Soil Primer
The Regenerative Soil Primer typically consists of Rejuvenate, SeaShield, and an inoculant like Spectrum applied to the soil in the fall and works to increase soil biology. The program has been observed to:
-
Increase porosity and soil tilth
-
Digest crop residue rapidly
-
Improve organic matter
-
Decrease chance of overwintering disease
-
Boost microbial population
-
Increase bioavailability of macro- and micronutrients in the soil
-
Build natural resistance to disease and insect pests

Two AEA partners & no-till wheat growers out of Kansas were determined to reduce their soluble nitrogen usage—as well as improve their soil health and bottom line. They ran some trials on their wheat to see if they could get a greater yield with the use of AEA’s BioCoat Gold and the Regenerative Soil Primer.
