An electrolyzed water generating apparatusincludes: an electrolysis tank D containing a first electrode chamber Da having a cathode, a second electrode chamber Db having anode, and a separating membrane Sp separating the first electrode chamber Da and the second electrode chamber Db from each other; a first water inlet pathsupplying the first electrode chamber Da with raw water from outside; a first water outlet pathcarrying to outside hydrogen-containing electrolyzed water generated by electrolysis in the first electrode chamber Da; and a charge amount adjusterfor adjusting, during the electrolysis, an amount of electrical charge to be provided to the hydrogen-containing electrolyzed water. The charge amount adjusteradjusts the amount of electrical charge per unit quantity of the generated hydrogen-containing electrolyzed water through control of an electrolytic current or an electrolytic voltage.

Method of using an agricultural electrolyzed water-generating apparatus for generation of agricultural electrolyzed water useful for plant growth

The electrolyzed water-generating apparatusincludes: a first electrode chamber Da; a first water inlet pathconnected to the first electrode chamber Da to supply the first electrode chamber Da with raw water from outside; a first water outlet pathconnected to the first electrode chamber Da, and dispensing out of the first electrode chamber Da electrolyzed hydrogen water generated by electrolysis in the first electrode chamber Da; and a charge amount adjusterconnected to the electrolysis tank D to adjust an amount of electrical charge to be provided to the electrolyzed hydrogen water. The charge amount adjusteradjusts, based on a flow rate of the raw water, the amount of the electrical charge per unit quantity of the generated electrolyzed hydrogen water through control of an electrolytic current or an electrolytic voltage, so that the adjusted amount of the electrical charge is constant.
