Mulching Plastic Heavy (25 Micron)
OverView
available Size: 1.2*400 sq m
Mulching is the process or practice of covering the soil/ground to make more favorable conditions for plant growth, development and efficient crop production. Mulch technical term means ‘covering of soil’.
Uses:
• Required size of mulch film is cut from the main roll.
• Clean the required area by removing the stones, pebbles, weeds etc.
• Till the soil well and apply a little quantity of water before mulching
• Small trench could be made around the periphery of the mulching area to
facilitate anchoring of the mulch film.
• Cover the film to the entire area around the tree and the end should be buried in
the ground.
• Semi circular holes could be made at four corners of the film in order to facilitate
water movement.
• The position of the slit/opening should be parallel to the wind direction
• Cover the corners of the film with 4-6 inches of soil on all sides to keep the film
in position.
• In hard soil, make a trench of 1’x1’x2’ depth on four corners of the mulching area
and fill it up with gravel or stones, cover the trenches with the mulch film and
allow the water to pass through the mulch to the trenches via semi circular holes
on the film
properties:
Plastic mulches 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. In this manner it plays a positive role in water conservation.
benefits:
-Moisture Conservation.
-Weed Control.
