The water retaining agent used continues to increase

Against the background of intensified global climate change, water retaining agent (SAP), as a key material for drought resistance and moisture retention, is promoting the green transformation of agricultural production. Not only the Chinese market, but more and more agricultural countries are increasing their use.

As an emerging agricultural environmental protection material, water retaining agent (SAP) can absorb 500-1,000 times its own weight of water and release it slowly in the soil. It absorbs water to resist floods during the flood season, and slowly releases water during the dry season to keep crops with sufficient water. And because of its low cost and long service life, it is deeply loved by the vast agricultural market.

In 2023, China's water retaining agent exports increased by 16.4% year-on-year, mainly sold to water-scarce areas such as Southeast Asia and Africa. Qingdao and many other companies have entered the European and American markets through environmentally friendly products, serving more than 120 countries around the world. According to industry experts, the compound annual growth rate of global SAP demand will reach 10% in 2030, and China's production capacity will account for more than 30%.

At present, synthetic polymer water retainers lack nutrients and are mainly based on water absorption and release. The subsequent water retainer SAP will add nutrients to become the research and development focus. If combined with fertilizers, the effect will be greatly increased.
