  • How does polyacrylamide affect crop growth?
  • It is effective in stabilizing soil aggregates, reducing soil erosion, and increasing water infiltration, and also has an indirect significant impact upon crop growth and yield. For the most part, polyacrylamide is resistant to microbial attack, and its degradation is mainly through physical breakdown.
  • Does polyacrylamide control erosion?
  • A review of the literature was conducted to bring to the forefront knowledge of polyacrylamide, its effectiveness in controlling erosion and its environmental fate. Polyacrylamide is a water‐soluble, high molecular weight synthetic organic polymer that primarily interacts with the clay fraction of soils.
  • What is ionic polyacrylamide (PAM)?
  • Anionic polyacrylamide (PAM) has been sold since 1995 to reduce irrigation‐induced erosion and enhance infiltration.
  • How does polyacrylamide interact with soil?
  • Polyacrylamide is a water‐soluble, high molecular weight synthetic organic polymer that primarily interacts with the clay fraction of soils. The degree of interaction depends on both the properties of the polymer and properties of the soil.
