BountiGel®'s patented technology is unique not only in its ability to hold 150 times its weight in water, but also in its longevity. Unlike competing products, BountiGel® is the only hydrogel solution that can last up to 3 years in trees before reapplication is needed. Annual crops require reapplication during each crop cycle.

When trying anything new, we understand that you'll have questions. We also understand that you'll want to trial BountiGel® on a portion of your farm, grove, nursery or garden. That way you can compare the treated crop with the untreated crop and experience the difference for yourself.

BountiGel® is a non-toxic, next-generation soil additive called an Aquamer® that allows growers to optimize the usage of water in agricultural soil. Proven on a wide variety of crops and transplants, growers who add BountiGel® to the soil can enjoy improved yields and reduced water usage. BountiGel® is available in two forms for different applications:
BountiGel-G® for avocados, citrus, olives, grapes and other tree and vine crops.
BountiGel-P® is optimized for annual crops like tomatoes, strawberries and lettuce.

For new almond, citrus, avocado or olive transplants, you are looking at a cost of approximately $0.70 per tree. A single 50-gram-per-tree application is good for 2-3 years. Treating established trees with BountiGel requires a field technician and specialized equipment, which we supply. Annual crops also require specialized equipment and training, depending on the crop.
