Aras AgroTech has developed an innovative spray-on polymer membrane, which has been 100% bio-based and made from non-toxic materials. This technology has allowed farmers to increase crop yield and save water, while reducing inputs and minimizing environmental impact. The SBPM solution has eliminated the need for disposal of plastic mulch after each cropping cycle and has left no toxic residues in the soil. With the obstruction of photosynthetically active radiation by the opaque nature of SBPM, weed growth has been effectively suppressed. The “spray and walk away” application method has simplified the process, requiring no specialized farm equipment. Farmers have the flexibility to adjust coverage depth, thickness, and width using a simple handheld or conventional spray rig. Moreover, the production of concentrated SBPM solution has reduced transportation costs significantly. The environmentally friendly and sustainable nature of SBPM has made it completely biodegradable in fields, with no adverse effects observed on soil, water systems, microbiota, or soil organisms. Additionally, a reduction of soil wicking by 50-90% has been observed with various viscosity modifiers.
