Our Solution
To solve the problem of water scarcity, Kyoga SAHs Labs will develop superabsorbent hydrogels (SAHs), which are a promising solution. The Company uses natural char nanoparticles and natural cross-linkers to increase water absorption and retention capacity. The Company will use natural cross-linking mechanism that will increase the number of hydrophilic groups, increasing their dimension after swelling, ultimately increasing soil porosity and providing a better oxygenation to the plant roots.
The Company will produce SAHs loaded with fertilizers with the function of slow release of fertilizers which is anticipated to contribute to productivity, nutrient content, and profitability.
Following are the advantages of SAHs in agriculture:
- Prevented leaching of active ingredients to the groundwater
- Improved carbon assimilation rate in the early stage of plant growth
- Stabilized fertilizers in the soil
- Reduced irrigation cost
- Enhanced plant growth
