About Agri Hydrogel
What is Agrihydrogel
AGRI HYDROGEL is generally composed of a 3-dimensional polymer network structure which is a range of superabsorbent anionic polyacrylamide polymers. Co-polymers of acrylate and acrylamide are cross-linked and are water soluble. These become gel on absorbing water and have a capacity of absorbing distilled water up to 350 times their weight.
How Agrihydrogel works
A network is formed by cross-linking wherein the polymeric chains in the AGRI HYDROGEL that are parallel to each other and regularly linked. Through osmosis, the water is drawn into the molecules as soon as it comes in contact with these chains from where it rapidly migrates to the inner of the polymer network and gets stored for later use. These polymers release as much as 95% of the absorbed water.
Why Agrihydrogel needed
Our AGRI HYDROGEL sticks to the root of the plants to absorb water and nutrients during the availability of water and retain it. On dry condition when there is a scarcity of water our AGRI HYDROGEL releases the water and nutrient through its Absorb, Retain and Release cycles.Thus AGRI HYDROGEL increases the water.

Benefits
Amazing absorption capacity
The AGRI HYDROGEL has the ability to absorb and release the water continuously over a period of several years. It has a special feature of rewetting
In aqueous medium
The water holding and absorption capacity of AGRI HYDROGEL decrease in an aqueous medium due to the presence of electrolytes. This influence of salts
Reduces the effect of leaching
Prevents water and nutrient loss due to leaching. Fertilizers can be stored in the network for a longer duration thereby providing the buffering
Delay in the wilting point
The holding capacity of the soil increases and the wilting point is delayed, thereby reducing the irrigation frequency to as low as 50%. 2 grams of
Reduction in labor cost

Protecting the environment by eliminating the problem of drought and groundwater pollution. Also helps in saving water as now less amount of water is needed. It is also biodegradable as it is sensitive
Benefits
Amazing absorption capacity
The AGRI HYDROGEL has the ability to absorb and release the water continuously over a period of several years. It has a special feature of rewetting itself quickly even when it has been dehydrated completely.
In aqueous medium
The water holding and absorption capacity of AGRI HYDROGEL decrease in an aqueous medium due to the presence of electrolytes. This influence of salts is the reason for the fact that its water holding capacity in a substrate varies around 100-150 times its weight.
Reduces the effect of leaching
As the watering frequency is reduced by 30% to 50% due to an increases water holding capacity of the soil, it reduces the labor cost and also the amount of water required.
Delay in the wilting point
The holding capacity of the soil increases and the wilting point is delayed, thereby reducing the irrigation frequency to as low as 50%. 2 grams of AGRI HYDROGEL added to 1 kg of sandy soil increases the water holding capacity of the soil to twice as compared to the untreated soil.
Reduction in labor cost
As the watering frequency is reduced by 30% to 50% due to an increases water holding capacity of the soil, it reduces the labor cost and also the amount of water required.

Microbial Activity
The presence of our Agrihydrogel enables more feasibility to microorganisms in soil, and this microbiological process of microorganisms increases the quality of the soil. All plants depend on these microorganisms for mineralizing nutrients for its better growth rate. The soil also gets a stable nitrogen and carbon reservoir to make the biological decomposition process faster.

Reduces the effect of leaching
Prevents water and nutrient loss due to leaching. Fertilizers can be stored in the network for a longer duration thereby providing the buffering effect on the availability of the fertilizers.

Biodegradation
Protecting the environment by eliminating the problem of drought and groundwater pollution. Also helps in saving water as now less amount of water is needed. It is also biodegradable as it is sensitive to the action of ultraviolet rays. The UV rays can break the bond and degrade the polymer into oligomers (molecules of much smaller size) making it much more sensitive to the aerobic and anaerobic processes of microbiological degradation. Therefore, the Agri HYDROGEL can degrade naturally in soils (up to 10% – 15% per year).
