Agragel (T-400) 
AgraGel (T-400) Product Sheet
AgraGel® (T-400) crystals absorb and hold hundreds of times their weight
in water, and then upon demand, release the moisture to the plant. Of all plant polymers now available, AgraGel® (T-400) crystals have the greatest absorption under soil pressure and perform more effectively in the presence of fertilizers and other water soluble soil additives. These crystals are completely non-toxic and due to their high resistance to electrolytes, remain actively effective for five to seven years with a single installation. Affordable costs together with reduced irrigation requirements, fertilizer savings and significant increases in crop yields result in the most cost effective soil polymer product on the market.
How AgraGel® (T-400) works
When water or fluids come into contact with AgraGel (T-400) crystals, an electrical force pushes the inward structure of the particle away from the center via electrical repulsion. Small voids are created inside the particle drawing the water inward which results in rapid swelling of the crystal. When the water evaporates or is taken up by the plant, the particle shrinks and is ready for the process to repeat. These reservoirs of water (hydrogels) are evenly dispersed throughout the plant’s root zone.
When the soil dries out and reaches 50% of field capacity, the crystals are engineered to release their moisture to compensate for the outside soil pressure on the gel wall.
This promotes the roots to grow to the new found moisture source provided by the presence of the hydrogels. In many cases the roots grow right through the hydrated crystals, extracting the moisture before moving on to the next closest one.
This process promotes increased root mass resulting in larger plants and increased crop yield.
AgraGel (T-400) crystals extend the time between irrigations thus providing for more efficient use of available water contributing to water conservation.

● Extremely cost effective
U.S. & International Patents pending
What is AgraGel® (T-400)
AgraGel® (T-400) crystals are potassium based, organic cross linked copolymers with water binding groups. In dry form, they are white, crystalline granules with a neutral pH and when hydrated, become a gel which retains fluids, even under soil pressure and in the presence of fertilizers and other soil additives. AgraGel® (T-400) crystals are characterized by high volume absorption and fluid retention and are available in a variety of crystal sizes for various soil requirements.
