Hold water where the roots are.
Sarovar Hydrogel makes super absorbent polymers for Indian farms, nurseries and industry, and helps you choose the right grade and dose. Promoted from Nashik since 2016.
One gram of agricultural hydrogel can hold hundreds of grams of water in pure water conditions, and gives it back to roots as the soil dries.

Five product lines, one chemistry family
All are cross-linked polymers. They differ in counter-ion, crosslinking and form — which decides where each belongs.

Absorption values are indicative for the polymer class; the Technical Data Sheet for each grade governs.
Absorb, hold, release, repeat
What one granule does in the root zone across each irrigation.
Step 1 of 4
Absorb
Irrigation or rain reaches the granule. It swells into gel within minutes to hours.
Step 2 of 4
Hold
Water that would drain below the roots or evaporate stays in the gel.
Step 3 of 4
Release
As the soil dries, roots draw water back out of the gel.
Step 4 of 4
Repeat
The granule shrinks, then re-absorbs at the next watering — for many cycles.

A Nashik brand, built in the field
Sarovar Hydrogel has been promoted to growers since 2016 by Sarovar Agro Group, from Nashik — a district where grapes, pomegranate and onion are grown on light murrum and heavy black soils, and where every irrigation counts.
We publish our record as it is documented: dated product records, field demonstrations and test results. Where a claim isn't backed yet, this site says so.
