-30% water, -40% pumping cycles, +16.5% yield in field tests.
2–4 kg/rai, mixed with fertilizer at planting.
2 kg/rai applied with ridging at 1:10–15 mix ratio.
1–2 kg/rai blended with seed or base fertilizer.
30–50 g per transplant — scale by canopy size as trees grow.
30–50 g per pot, mixed into the soil before first watering.

| Crop | Rate | Method |
|---|---|---|
| Rice — sandy soil | 2 kg / rai | Mix with dry soil and organic fertilizer at 1:10–15. Broadcast after land prep. |
| Rice — clay soil | 1–1.5 kg / rai | Broadcast over the soil surface after puddling. |
| Sugarcane | 2–4 kg / rai | Mix with fertilizer or soil conditioner. Apply at planting alongside the row. |
| Cassava | 2 kg / rai | Mix with fertilizer 1:10–15. Apply with ridge formation, then cover. |
| Corn / Maize | 1–2 kg / rai | Mix into seed dressing or base fertilizer at planting. |
| Orchard — transplant | 30–50 g / tree | Place in the planting hole below the root ball. |
| Orchard — mature tree | Canopy diameter × 200–300 g | Apply around the dripline; lightly incorporate into the soil. |
| Potted plants | 30–50 g / pot | Mix into the potting soil before the first watering. |
Note: Do not broadcast SAP on the soil surface — except for paddy rice. Always pair with soil conditioner for clay-heavy plots.
The answers most farmers and agronomists ask before placing a first order.
Our potassium polyacrylate biodegrades 100% within 2–3 years, breaking down into CO₂, NH₃, and H₂O. There is no microplastic or chemical residue.
No. Diaper SAP is sodium-based — fine for absorption, but it accumulates salt in soil and isn't plant-friendly. Ours is potassium-based, which plants can use directly and never leaves salt build-up.
In our rice paddy field tests we observed roughly 30% less water usage and 40% fewer pump cycles, while lifting yield by 16.5%. Results vary by soil type and climate.
Yes — that's precisely where SAP shines. 80% of Thai farmland is rain-fed. SAP turns one rainfall into multiple weeks of usable moisture in the root zone.
It will likely reduce it. SAP absorbs and gradually releases fertilizer ions, which means less leaching and a slower, steadier feed for the plant. Many growers cut their fertilizer use after the first season.
