1. A process for producing a photographic suspended processing agent composition, comprising previously mixing at least two powder or granular solid components constituting said composition and rapidly adding said mixed powder or granular solids to water or a liquid medium mainly comprising water under quick stirring to disperse and suspend the solid components, thereby producing a suspended processing agent composition for silver halide photographic materials, wherein the composition further comprises a coagulation inhibitor selected from the group consisting of carboxymethyl cellulose, alkali metal salts thereof, compounds represented by formula (SI), and compounds represented by formula (SII):

    space="preserve" listing-type="equation">RO(CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 O).sub.m [CH.sub.2 CH(OH)CH.sub.2 O].sub.n X(SI)wherein R represents an alkyl group having from 8 to 25 carbon atoms or a group represented by the formula;

    ##STR8## wherein R1 represents an alkyl group having from 6 to 20 carbon atoms, R2 represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group having from 1 to 20 carbon atoms, and 1 represents 0 or an integer of from 1 to 4, m represents an integer of from 40 to 200 when n is 0, an integer of from 10 to 100 when n is from 5 to 9, and 0 or an integer of from 1 to 100 when n is 10 or greater, n represents 0 or an integer of from 5 to 50, and X represents a hydrogen atom or SO3 M, wherein M represents a hydrogen atom or an alkali metal, ##STR9## wherein R3 represents an alkyl group, R4 represents a hydrogen atom or an alkyl group, R5 and R6 each independently represents a hydrogen atom, a hydroxyl group, an alkyl group or CO2 M1, M1 and M2 each represents a hydrogen atom or an alkali metal, and p represents 0 or 1.
