EarthGuard® FM Partial Seasonal Erosion Control
Often times, erosion control protection is needed during the later half of the rainy season or only needed for a few months. To achieve Partial Seasonal Erosion Control, EarthGuard® FM can be applied at a reduced modified rate to protect exposed soil, but more importantly to save costs.

The following chart can be used as general rate guidelines for partial erosion control (loamy soils that are balanced in organic matter and nutrients with a maximum rainfall of 6-9" over a 2-3 month period). Consult S & S Seeds for site specific recommendations.
