FAQ
-
Q: What is AGP Iron Gel?
A: A plant-based biodegradable gel that delivers iron directly to aquaponic crop roots efficiently and sustainably.
-
Q: How does the plant-based gel deliver iron to plants?
A: The gel acts like a “bank” of iron for plant roots. Plants extract nutrients from the gel using natural mechanisms similar to how they pull minerals from soil, giving them iron exactly where they need it.
-
Q: How is AGP Iron Gel different from powdered chelates?
A: Our gel locks iron in aqueous form using plant-based polysaccharides instead of synthetic chelators like EDTA or EDDHA. This allows farmers to add iron directly to plant roots, use less overall iron, and avoid dosing the entire system with dissolved nutrients.
-
Q: Is the product biodegradable?
A: Yes, AGP Iron Gel is completely plant-based and breaks down naturally, leaving no harmful residues in your system or the environment.
-
Q: Does it reduce the need for synthetic fertilizers?
A: Absolutely. Because the gel delivers nutrients directly to the roots, farmers can use less synthetic fertilizer while still supporting healthy plant growth.
-
Q: Can I use AGP Iron Gel in both small and large systems?
A: Yes, it is designed to scale from home aquaponics setups to commercial farms.
