Water Conservation & Wetting Agents

Wetting Agents

Wetting agents, or surfactants, reduce water’s surface tension, aiding its spread. They improve water penetration in soil, crucial for effective plant hydration, especially in water-repellent soils like sand or high-organic matter soils. This ensures efficient moisture delivery, minimises runoff, and supports uniform water distribution, fostering healthier plants and water conservation.

Water Conservation

This Refers to the careful management and use of water resources to meet current and future demands while ensuring sustainability. It involves reducing water wastage, improving efficiency in water use, and preserving water quality. With increasing population, urbanisation, and climate change, the demand for freshwater is rising, making water conservation a critical concern globally. Strategies include rainwater harvesting, efficient irrigation practices, fixing leaks, and promoting water-saving appliances.
