Start Your Own Seed-Treating Business
Whether for use on your own farm or to set up a side business, treating seeds can pay off. Unified Ag Solutions (UAS) has the equipment and seed treatments to make it work.
    “We specialize in anything to do with seed treatments,” says Emily Nesbitt, UAS. “We handle new and used equipment as well as brand name seed treatments and some we have developed. We can customize a package for your business and your wallet.”
    Nesbitt is part of a family-owned business started by her father Roger that includes herself and her 2 brothers. She says being a family business helps them as they work with customers.
    “We only offer products we would want for ourselves,” she says. “If you are interested in some equipment, my brothers will meet with you to make sure we understand what you are looking for. Then we will develop options for you.”
    Nesbitt says the family mainly works with farmer seed dealers who treat seed as part of their business. Although an equipment recommendation would depend on how much seed was to be treated, she suggests an AT500 from USC is a good place to start.
    “It’s a simple box treater with a starting price below $15,000,” says Nesbitt. “It’s a new model, but we’ve already sold 4 or 5.”
    Nesbitt says customer service is what the family strives for. They welcome the opportunity to work with people setting up new businesses or expanding.
    “We will help you get to the point of determining the potential for your business,” says Nesbitt.
