My soil is full of clumps of clay and I’m wondering if this is the answer. Any issues with using it?

    Check the ingredients, a lot of times it’s just soap / detergent. It does work. Some guy on YouTube experimented with it. Sorry, I forget the channel name.

      It’s on the bottle: polylignosulfonates

      The lignosulfonate is the by-product of wood and paper processing industry, categorized under lignin based organic polymers, and normally considered a waste. It was found that, with increasing lignosulfonate content, the critical hydraulic shear stress of the treated dispersive soil samples increased, and the coefficient of soil erosion decreased
