24 Water remains one of the most unpredictable and economically significant variables in crop production. In some regions, growers struggle through prolonged drought. In others, heavy rainfall events wash nutrients beyond the reach of plant roots. As weather variability increases, farmers are increasingly looking for tools that can help stabilize production while improving input efficiency. Green Evolution Technologies Inc. believes it has one such tool. The Las Vegas, Nevada-based company has spent years bringing a long-developed hydrogel technology to commercial agriculture through its flagship product, InteliGel. According to Dr. Chad Godsey, Chief Agronomist at Green Evolution Technologies, the company’s focus is straightforward: help farmers produce more while using fewer resources. “At the simplest level, we help farmers grow more while spending less on water and fertilizer—and we do it without degrading the ground they farm,” explained Dr. Godsey in a recent interview with Farms.com Precision Agriculture Digital Digest. A hydrogel platform developed by Green Evolution Technologies is designed to help growers improve water-use efficiency, reduce nutrient loss, and increase profitability across a wide range of cropping systems.
