I AM FARMER WHAT IS HYDROGEL PLEASE GIVE ME ANY SUGGESTIONS

1. WHAT IS THIS PRODUCT BENIFITS. It can be used for irrigation-instead of drip irrigation.
2. HOW MANY DAYS WORKING IN THIS PRODUCT. Depends on the size of the gel and its water content levels and water requirement of the crop.
3.IF ANY NEGATIVE IN THIS PRODUCT USING. Proper information not available. There may be some negative effects because it is made by polymer and how the polymer (being chemical compounds) will react and result in creation of toxins while reacting with water, soil and atmospheric elements are not yet proved properly (as far as we know) and there is possibility of negative effects, like plastics in the soil for a long time, and there is possibility of accumulation of the polymer waste in the soil also which may not be good for the soil in long term.
4. IF ANY ONE USERS PLEASE GIVE YOUR SUGGESTIONS.
None of the users we know are happy with it as there is lot of water being evaporated and the expected quantity of water may not be available for the plant. May be this can be used in dry/arid areas with less water to give at least minimum water to the plants when there is no possibility of other irrigation facilities.

A hydrogel is a network of polymer chains that are hydrophilic, sometimes found as a colloidal gel in which water is the dispersion medium. Hydrogels are highly absorbent (they can contain over 90% water) natural or synthetic polymeric networks.
