Biopolymer-based hydrogel formulations for improved seed coating performance

As climate change, soil degradation, and water scarcity place growing pressure on agriculture, scientists are looking for new ways to help crops germinate and grow more efficiently while reducing environmental impact. A new study involving researchers from Nazarbayev University's National Laboratory Astana published in Scientific Reports proposes a promising solution: biodegradable hydrogel coatings made from natural polymers.
