BIAGRA – Soil Moisture Retainer

This unique new product helps your lawn require 50% less water over summer, surviving heat & water restrictions.

Bi-Agra™ is a bi-active formula provides both outstanding penetration along with superior moisture retention.  Bi-Agra™ strength is its ability to retain additional moisture in normally low water-retaining root zones. Unlike polyacrylamides which hold water tightly, Bi-Agra™ holds moisture in the soil, yet allows water availability through the normal process of osmosis as required by the roots. Bi-Agra™ should be used as a curative treatment on severely water repellent soils to assist with the rewetting of dry root zones.

  • Can retain up to 5 times the amount of water against the root zone compared to untreated areas
  • Is non-burning at recommended rates.
  • Reduces turf wilting and moisture/heat stress
  • Is environmentally friendly
  • Is an easy hose on application
  • 2 litres treats 150 m² of lawn and garden bed

When used in combination with Aqua Force premium wetting agent, it helps keep your lawn healthy and green during Perth’s summer heat and water restrictions.

Apply Aqua Force premium wetting agent initially and then follow up with an application of Bi-Agra™ soil moisture retainer, a few days later. Make sure to water the products in well after application.

Bi-Agra™ premium soil moisture-retaining agent is recommended for use at the following times and should be applied at least three times a year and preferably four. At the beginning of Spring (September), again at the beginning of Summer (December), and in late Summer (February), an application in June, prior to winter rains, is also recommended also to ensure that your winter rains aren’t wasted.

Aqua Force is a premium soil surfactant for premium performance. It combines highly penetrating properties whilst having the ability to attach onto soil particles, providing a water attracting surface to assist with water passing through the profile. It is less phytotoxic than many other soil wetters, with excellent long term soil wetting properties. Although a low phytotoxic risk, thorough watering of all soil wetting products is recommended. As well as being an extra safety mechanism, it also enhances their performance.

When used in combination with Bi-Agra™   it helps keep your lawn healthy and green during Perth’s summer heat and water restrictions. Apply Aqua Force and then follow up with an application of Bi-Agra™ soil moisture retainer, a few days later.
