ABSTRACT:
A superabsorbent polymer combined with a beneficial additive and method for administering the same in agricultural applications is disclosed. A method for delivering a beneficial additive in agricultural applications includes obtaining a beneficial additive combined with a superabsorbent starch graft copolymer and dispensing the combined beneficial additive and superabsorbent polymer in an agricultural environment.
