2020-12-21 · Mulching paper is a technique, adding layers to the surface of the soil for the preservation of soil erosion and protect plants from heat. The film is around the plant who suppress weed growth, prevent water loss due to evaporation and maintain soil temperature. The bio mulch film is made of high strength LLDPE and LDPE material.
The mulch films are completely impermeable to water; it therefore prevents direct evaporation of moisture from the soil and thus limits the water losses and soil erosion over the surface These films are available either in black or black/ silver colour and in a wide range of thicknesses and widths according to specific needs, specifiions and

Mulch films are used to modify soil temperature, limit weed growth, prevent moisture loss, and improve crop yield as well as precocity. Because of their thickness, use of pigments and their exposure to high solar irradiation, mulch films require proper light and thermal stabilizers with intermediate chemical resistance.
2022-4-7 · While the preservation of soil moisture with nylon mulch is 20.33%, rice husks preserve 20.27% and the grasses 19.54%. When applying organic mulches, one has to consider that due to strong rainfalls, repeated appliion of mulching materials may be demanded, as decomposition is accelerated or rice husks are washed away.
