Mariner is an Economical Workhorse Soil Surfactant
Mariner® is a specialized product designed to enhance water infiltration, distribution, and retention in various soil types, specifically formulated to meet the needs of the turf management and agricultural industries. Mariner is a straight block chemistry, that is crafted using seaweed extracts and other proprietary surfactant technologies that work synergistically to improve soil health, nutrient uptake, and plant resilience against environmental stresses. By helping water penetrate more efficiently into the soil profile, Mariner optimizes moisture availability to plants, reducing water waste and promoting deeper root growth, which is essential for the health and longevity of turfgrass and other crops.
One of the key benefits of Mariner is its ability to address issues associated with hydrophobic soil conditions, which are common in areas with sandy or compacted soil. These conditions can lead to uneven water distribution and patchy, stressed turf. Mariner’s unique formulation helps break down the surface tension in water, allowing it to move more freely and evenly through the soil. This process helps to alleviate dry spots and promote uniform growth, which is particularly important in high preforming turf.
The addition of seaweed extracts in Mariner provides an extra layer of benefits. Seaweed is rich in essential plant hormones, minerals, and trace elements that contribute to plant vitality and resilience. The organic compounds found in seaweed, such as alginic acid, help improve soil structure by fostering beneficial microbial activity, which in turn enhances nutrient availability and soil porosity. This leads to healthier plants that are better equipped to withstand drought, disease, and other environmental stresses.
