SRP’S DATA SHOWS A 40-50% REDUCTION IN SALT & WATER WITH CBX

Salt River Project’s test facility, PERA Club, set up a test to show how CBX can control salt in the soil of turf grown in Arizona. This graph represents the data recorded by conductivity sensors at the time of each irrigation cycle. The poly acrylamide treated area requires more irrigation to maintain the moisture set point. The CBX treated area not only shows less water requirements but also shows that the conductivity of the soil has been greatly reduced, thus demonstrating a reduced salt effect on the plants. Test data was collected for approximately 3 years and this data was chosen because it takes place during the hottest time of summer, showing the effects of CBX on soils in extreme conditions.
