Growing a crop solely depending on the climate was a game of luck for the farmers until the introduction of plastic mulch film. Since then, plastic mulches have been the most important tool for farmers to shield their farms, in both small-scale or large-scale farms, against adverse situations like unfit climatic conditions, moisture retention, and weeds.
A plastic mulch film, which is made up of poly Ethylene, lasts as long as 7 years depending upon the usage and the mesh quality. The usage of plastic mulch films depends directly upon the crop. For instance, a mulching film is applied depending upon the scale of the farm, cropping season, and duration of the crop.
There are many types of plastic mulch films available which also include a biodegradable mulching film which is made up of corn-starch, vinyl alcohol, and lignocellulosic fiber, and considering the fact that they are biodegradable, they can be incorporated into the soil for a longer time than a normal polyethylene plastic mulching films which are needed to be removed after an interval. The other types of plastic mulch films include colored plastic mulches, where different shades of plastic mulch stimulate different environments of the crop.
