Pod Ceal® is a unique formulation containing cyclohexane polymer concentrate. It is a harvest management tool that helps improve yield capture and crop quality. Pod Ceal reduces the intrusion of moisture into the pod as the crop matures. This reduction in moisture intrusion can benefit the crop when it is exposed to rains or heavy dews during the final stages of development and dry down.

• Forms an elastic, semi-permeable membrane on pods
• Lessens re-entry of water into the dry or drying pod

• Allows crop to reach full maturity and extend pod fill
• Reduces seed sprouting in the pods and pod shatter
• Provides a longer harvest window
• Helps preserve seed quality
• Reduction in staining and seed loss

Pod Ceal binds to the pod’s natural waxes, forming an elastic, semi-permeable membrane. This helps limit the intrusion of moisture from rain or dew from entering the pod, while still letting internal moisture out. This reduces the strain on the pod structure and allows the sutures holding the pod halves together to remain intact. Maintaining the integrity of the pod structure allows the seed to fully develop, facilitating delayed swath and/or direct harvesting strategies. Controlling the entry of water reduces splitting/shatter and maintains seed quality.

• Key crops include, but are not limited to: edible beans, lentils, peas and canola (rapeseed)
• Should be applied when pods are still flexible to achieve full benefit
• Can be tank mixed with most insecticides and fungicides
• May be applied by ground or aerial spray equipment in sufficient water for good coverage
• Review label for specific application rates and recommendations

Exit® activator-adjuvant comprises a blend of premium-quality esterified seed oil with a proprietary surfactant and humectant system. This spreader-sticker activator helps maximize coverage, cuticle absorption, and translocation of agrochemicals. , Exit® is specially formulated for systemic, hormonal, and nutritional applications. It is designed for use with both water-soluble and oil-soluble formulations. Ultimately, Exit® activator surfactant increases deposition and surface activity of pesticides allowing for greater absorption and translocation over time. This increase in efficiency and effectiveness allows you to do more with less. 

• CPDA certified
• Chemically designed to work with both water and oil soluble agrochemicals
• Proprietary blend of esterified seed oils, surfactants, and humectants
• Enhances initial deposition and cuticle retention
• Increases and accelerates translocation of products through the plant cuticle

• Enhances coverage and deposition results in more consistent and improved efficacy of products applied
• Improves crop safety margin helping to protect quality of crop
• Reduces pesticide crystallization on plant surface
• Increases pesticide and nutritional uptake efficiency

For a foliar application to be absorbed into the plant, it must be either absorbed through the cuticle (waxy coating on a leaf surface that protects the plant from water loss and damage) or through the stomata (openings on the underside of the plant leaf that help to regulate water exiting the plant). To minimize water loss, stomata are typically closed for most of the day. To maximize plant uptake through the cuticle or stomata, an agrochemical must be in contact with the leaf surface for as long as possible. This can be incredibly challenging in conditions such as high heat, winds or even low humidity when rapid drying and crystallization can be a concern.  

By utilizing Miller’s proprietary surfactant and humectant technology, the addition of Exit® to a tank mix dramatically increases deposition, coverage, and the speed of absorption through the cuticle while also minimizing the crystallization of agrochemicals on the leaf surface. This allows for an increase in the amount of time the agrochemical is in contact with the leaf surface, which in turn increases uptake and reduces loss.
