FLOBOND™ SP 2300 SOIL PROTECT improves soil structure by forming a network of polymer chains. This network binds soil particles, creating aggregates that enhance soil porosity and water infiltration. Improved soil structure facilitates root penetration and aeration, promoting overall plant growth. It is designed to increase water retention and infiltration in various soil types.
FLOBOND™ SP 2300 SOIL PROTECT improves aggregation, reduces crust, and increases pore space, enhancing water-holding capacity. It reduces standing water due to poor infiltration.
Easy to Use
It is an easy-to-use, high-quality polymer used to manage water and improve irrigation efficiency. It can be applied through irrigation water or conventional spray applications. FLOBOND™ SP 2300 SOIL PROTECT can be applied with other chemical products (only if a jar test indicates compatibility).
Improved Soil Structure
FLOBOND™ SP 2300 SOIL PROTECT can penetrate deeper into the soil. Once in the soil, it interacts with soil particles, promoting flocculation and aggregation. This leads to the formation of larger soil aggregates and improved soil structure. Enhanced soil structure increases pore space, porosity, and soil aeration, essential for root growth, water infiltration, and plant nutrient uptake.
Increased Water Infiltration and Retention
By promoting soil aggregation, FLOBOND™ SP 2300 SOIL PROTECT can help increase the soil's water-holding capacity. The larger pore spaces created by soil aggregates allow water to infiltrate deeper into the soil profile and be retained for longer periods. This can be particularly beneficial in soils with poor water retention capacity or in regions prone to drought, as it helps improve soil moisture levels and reduces irrigation frequency. It will improve fertilizer benefits by decreasing the leaching.
FLOBOND™ SP 2300 SOIL PROTECT stabilizes soil structure and water retention.
Minimize water loss
FLOBOND™ SP 2300 SOIL PROTECT maintains the soil structure by avoiding aggregate slaking and minimizing water loss through percolation.
Soil Amendment
FLOBOND™ SP 2300 SOIL PROTECT can be used as a soil amendment to improve soil structure and tilth. By binding soil particles together, these polymers help to create larger soil aggregates, which improves soil aeration, capillary water movement, and root penetration. This creates a more favorable environment for plant growth and enhances soil productivity.
The grower standard shows that the grower is on a 10-day irrigation cycle, with irrigation events getting the soil moisture to saturation at field capacity and drying out over 10 days to just above the wilting point. After applications of FLOBOND™ SP 2300 SOIL PROTECT, the grower is retaining more moisture in the soil and able to extend his irrigation events by 3-4 days. Throughout the growing season, they will be able to eliminate multiple irrigations, saving water, energy, and labor.
