Water retention in agriculture is vital for optimizing plant growth, especially in arid regions or areas with erratic rainfall. In addition to the use of soil conditioners, soil physical mulching and conservation tillage, the rational use of water-retaining and wetting agents is also a good solution.
How to the water retaining wetting agent works ?
For example , TIS-360 is an wetting spray adjuvant which base on Lecithin-Enriched Vegetable Oil, offers significant benefits for agricultural spraying, particularly in water-scarce or hot area.
Here’s how it outperforms :
- Increased Viscosity & Reduced Drift
Forms a thicker, more stable spray solution, minimizing drift during application.
Ensures precise targeting, reducing waste and environmental contamination.
- Water Retention & Anti-Evaporation
Creates a protective film on leaf surfaces, locking moisture and slowing evaporation.
Extends the active window for pesticide/herbicide absorption, especially critical in arid climates.
- Enhanced Adhesion & Prolonged Efficacy
Improves droplet adhesion to foliage, even under high temperatures or windy conditions.
Allows agrochemicals to remain effective longer, maximizing uptake by plants.
- Cost Efficiency in Drought-Prone Areas
Reduces the need for frequent re-spraying due to evaporation or drift losses.
Lowers water consumption by optimizing chemical delivery—ideal for regions facing water scarcity.
