Water scarcity, higher pumping costs, and erratic rainfall make irrigation less reliable and more expensive. In coarse or compacted soils, water is lost to evaporation, runoff, and deep percolation—leaving roots stressed and yields at risk.
Water scarcity and drought drive soil erosion and salinity, degrade soil quality and water‑holding capacity, and reduce yields—especially in tropical and subtropical zones. Boosting agricultural water‑use efficiency is therefore a top priority
SOCO® Soil Hydrogel binds water within a hydrated matrix near the roots and meters it back over time—improving infiltration, reducing surface loss, and keeping moisture where plants can use it.
Reduce Drought Stress
Releasing Water Slowly (over 2-3 weeks)
High irrigation frequency drives up costs for water, energy, labor, equipment wear, and nutrient losses from leaching—yet still struggles to keep root‑zone moisture stable, especially in sandy or drought‑prone soils.
SOCO Hydrogel stores water at the root zone and releases it gradually, reducing irrigation cycles. This lowers operating costs, curbs nutrient leaching, eases strain on equipment, and stabilizes crop performance.
Improve Irrigation Efficiency
Reducing Irrigation Frequency by Up to 30–40%
Water is life, and efficient use of it is our shared duty.
From urban tree planting to reforestation and horticulture, SOCO® Hydrogel offers a practical, environmentally responsible solution that supports global water conservation and long-term soil vitality.
