Mulching films affecting soil bacterial and fungal communities in a drip-irrigated potato soil
Revista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2021 Film mulching is an effective water-saving and yield-increasing measure for potato production in Northwest China. However, the response mechanism of microbial communities to mulching films in the soil is still unclear.

Sprayable starch films for agricultural mulching
, 2023 Abstract Environmental sustainability has driven research into the development of biodegradable materials to address ecological challenges. In this study, biodegradable sprayable films were produced from thermally gelatinized cassava starch suspensions (5% w/v) to explore their potential application as protective coatings for agricultural soils.

Evaluation of the mulch films biodegradation in soil: A methodological review
Italian Journal of Agronomy, 2022 Plastic mulch films are widely used in agriculture, but most are not biodegradable in soil. Biodegradable mulch films are blends of different polymers whose composition-ratios vary notably from one product to another. Their degradation rates vary greatly according to the physio-chemical characteristics of the product and according to the properties of ...

Coatings, 2022 Biodegradable paper mulch has the advantages of being easily degradable and environmentally benign, but its own performance and adaptability to harsh environments have not been tested. This paper uses scanning electron microscopy and three-dimensional morphometry to microscopically characterize biodegradable paper mulch and white plastic mulch.

Studies on the Colored Plastic Film for Mulching
Japanese Journal of Crop Science, 1971 On the property of mulch films which are effective to either soil temperature raising or weed control, several studies were made from the viewpoint of transmissrion spectrum of film and wavelength dependence of weed growth. A clear polyethylene film was very effective to raise the soil temperature but allowed a thick growth of weeds, while a black one ...
