Advantages Of Plastic Mulching
1. It is completely impermeable to water.
2. It prevents the direct evaporation of moisture from the soil and thus limits water losses and conserves moisture.
3. By evaporation suppression, it prevents the rise of water-containing salts.
4. Mulch can facilitate fertilizer placement and reduce the loss of plant nutrients through leaching.
5. Mulches can also provide a barrier to soil pathogens.
6. Opaque mulches prevent the germination of annual weeds from receiving light.
7. Reflective mulches will repel certain insects.
8. Mulches maintain a warm temperature even during nighttime which enables seeds to germinate quickly and for young plants to rapidly establish a strong root growth system.
9. Synthetic mulches play a major role in the soil solarisation process.
10. Mulches develop a microclimatic underside of the sheet, which is higher in carbondi-oxide due to the higher level of microbial activity.
11. Under mulch, the soil structure is maintained during the cropping period and early germination for almost 2-3 days.
12. Better modulation in crops like Groundnut.
13. Fewer nematode population.
14. Water erosion is completely averted since the soil is completely covered from bearing the action of raindrops.
15. When compared to organic mulches, it serves for a longer period.
Mulch kharida hai, use karne ke bad jankari denge. Mujhe nehi lagta 30 micron honge. Kitna mahina lasting karte hai fir jankari denge.
