Agricultural spreading agent: a magical adjuvant to improve the efficiency of pesticides and fertilizers

In agricultural production, the utilization efficiency of pesticides and fertilizers is directly related to the yield and quality of crops. However, traditional pesticides and fertilizers often face problems such as poor adhesion and insufficient penetration during use, resulting in the loss of a large amount of chemical substances, which not only reduces the control effect and fertilizer efficiency, but also may pollute the environment. In order to solve this problem, agricultural spreading agents came into being.

1. The basic concept of agricultural spreading agents

Agricultural spreading agents, as the name suggests, are adjuvants that can enhance the ability of chemical substances to spread and penetrate into plant leaves or soil. It improves the contact angle between pesticides and fertilizers and plant leaves or soil, reduces surface tension, and enables these chemicals to better adhere to the surface of leaves or penetrate into the deep soil, thereby improving the control effect and fertilizer efficiency.

2. Mechanism of action of agricultural spreading agents

Enhanced adhesion: Agricultural spreading agents can reduce the contact angle between spray droplets and plant leaves, making it easier for droplets to spread on the surface of leaves to form a uniform film. In this way, pesticides and fertilizers can be more closely attached to the leaves, reducing loss and evaporation and improving utilization.

Improve permeability: By reducing surface tension and increasing osmotic pressure, agricultural spreaders can promote the penetration of pesticide and fertilizer molecules into the plant body through the stomata or intercellular gaps of plant leaves. This can not only improve the prevention and control effect, but also promote the absorption and utilization of nutrients by plants.

Rainwater erosion resistance: Pesticides and fertilizers added with agricultural spreaders can form a firm film on the surface of the leaves to resist the erosion of rainwater. In this way, even in rainy weather, a high prevention and control effect and fertilizer efficiency can be maintained.

3. Application advantages of agricultural spreaders

Improve prevention and control effects: Since agricultural spreaders can enhance the adhesion and permeability of pesticides on plant leaves, they can significantly improve the prevention and control effect. This is of great significance for controlling pests and diseases and protecting crop health.

Promote nutrient absorption: By improving the permeability of fertilizers in the soil, agricultural spreaders can promote the absorption and utilization of nutrients by plant roots. This helps to increase crop yield and quality and achieve efficient agriculture.

Reduce environmental pollution: Since agricultural infiltration agents can reduce the loss and evaporation of pesticides and fertilizers, the pollution risk of these chemicals to the environment can be reduced. This is of great significance for protecting the ecological environment and achieving sustainable development.

Cost saving: Since agricultural infiltration agents can improve the utilization efficiency of pesticides and fertilizers, the amount of use can be reduced, thereby reducing agricultural production costs. This is of great significance for improving agricultural economic benefits and increasing farmers' income.

4. Practical application cases of agricultural infiltration agents

In actual agricultural production, agricultural infiltration agents have been widely used in the prevention and control of various crops and pests and diseases. For example, adding an appropriate amount of agricultural infiltration agents when spraying pesticides can significantly improve the adhesion and penetration of pesticides on crop leaves, thereby enhancing the prevention and control effect. At the same time, adding agricultural infiltration agents when applying fertilizers can promote the penetration of fertilizer molecules into the deep soil layer and improve fertilizer efficiency. These application cases fully demonstrate the value and potential of agricultural infiltration agents in agricultural production.

5. Conclusion

As a new type of efficient adjuvant, agricultural infiltration agents play an increasingly important role in agricultural production. It improves the utilization efficiency of pesticides and fertilizers by enhancing the spreading and penetration of chemicals in plant leaves or soil, bringing significant economic and environmental benefits to agricultural production. In the future, with the continuous development of agricultural science and technology, the application scope and effect of agricultural spreading agents will continue to expand and improve.
