A process for the production of water-absorbing resin particle agglomerates by which water-absorbing resin particles having satisfactory high water-holding capacity and large diameters can be produced without using special material, which comprises the following steps (1) and (2): the polymerization step (1) of suspending an aqueous monomer solution containing a salt of an unsaturated carboxylic acid in an organic solvent in the presence of a nonionic surfactant and subjecting the resulting suspension to reversed phase suspension polymerization to form water-absorbing resin primary particles and the agglomeration step (2) of agglomerating the primary particles with a water-soluble solvent.
