What is HydroMmea?

HydroMmea is made by a ‘Green Chemistry’ process and has the ability to absorb and hold a large quantity of water in its structure as a super absorbent. The water absorbed is loosely held and is available to the plant root system. When used as a soil conditioner, HydroMmea has the following benefits:

  • Improves the farmlands capacity to hold water

  • Reduces wind and water erosion of soil

  • Reduces leaching, losses of nutrients and water to the plant

  • Helps reduce the effect of Evapotranspiration

The use of HydroMmea on farms is an innovative drought/moisture stress management technique.

Why every farmer should use HydroMmea?

  • Made with natural products as the base ingredient

  • No precipitated residual in the soil. Fully degradable

  • Saves water. Reduces the need for rain or irrigation by 40-70% depending on the crop and agro ecological context

  • Provides opportunity for multiple crop cycles per year

  • No dependency on weather or rain

  • Better yields - more crop with much better quality

  • Reduced cost of production for export crops, such as flowers

  • Support better nutrient retention in the soil with reduced feeding
