SilviBio Water Steward
SilviBio has developed a soil conditioner for field application that provides protection against seed germination failure due to drought conditions or low soil moisture.
​
In water deficit conditions, the soil additive improved germination by 40% and can save up to 50 million litres of water per 1 million seedlings according to our 2020 trial results.
Its key features include:
​
-
A biobased, biodegradable, microplastic-free soil additive.
-
Improving soil water holding capacity by minimising excessive water drainage and evaporation, meaning plants need less watering.
-
Enables extension of the growing season by improving seed germination.
-
There is no need to change growing systems: the conditioner can be supplied in a powder form and used with existing nursery machinery.​​

Can you show us results/data?Yes. Please contact us using the form below for more information.
-
Can we set up a trial?Yes, please contact us using the form below and we'd be happy to discuss this with you.
-
Does it contain microplastics?No, our conditioners are made from bio-based, biodegradable materials and do not contain microplastics.
-
In what ways is it different to currently available soil conditioners?Our soil conditioners do not contain the petroleum-based polymers (e.g. polyacrylates or polyacrylamides) used in conventional hydrogel products. Our soil conditioners are made from sustainable, bio-based materials.
-
Do you offer technical support?Yes, we have a strong team of scientists who are happy to provide assistance and answer any questions you may have.
