Abstract

A water-dispersible particle is provided to disperse additive agents and substances that repel specific species such as round worms or fish, function in bioremediation, or a combination thereof. The dispersible particles are used to treat soil or bodies of water. Exemplary uses include turf management, soil reclamation, and aquaculture. A water-dispersible particle for delivery of granulated seed meal is provided. In exemplary form, granulated camellia seed is delivered in the form of dispersible particles. A method for making and using the water-dispersible particle is also provided. The durable particle retains size and shape during handling and application to a desired area and dissolves or crumbles into small particles upon contact with water or a water overspray within twelve hours thereby facilitating controlled release and distribution of the additive agents and substances to the target including granulated seeds, nitrogen, and optional agents including plant nutrients, pesticides, hormones, herbicides, and micronutrients.
