Detection Method of Straw Mulching Unevenness with RGB-D Sensors
AgriEngineering, 2022 Returning straw to the field is very important of for the conservation tillage to increase land fertility. It is vital to detect the unevenness of the straw covering to evaluate the performance of no-tillage planter, especially for the ones with returning full amount of straw. In this study, two kinds of RGB-D(Red, Green, Blue-Depth) sensors (RealSense

STRAW MULCH UNDER STRAWBERRIES REDUCES EROSION AND HAILDAMAGE [PDF]
HortScience, 1993 In September of 1991, 1.1 m × 20 cm raised beds were built near Lane, OK. The beds were covered with straw or woven plastic mulch, or were left uncovered. Heavy rains in October left the uncovered beds about 20 cm wide × 13 cm tall. A gully was formed at the end of this field, and soil was deposited across several beds.

ECONOMICAL OPERATION OF DRIP IRRIGATION SYSTEM WITH RICE STRAW MULCHING [PDF]
Misr Journal of Agricultural Engineering, 2011 A field experiment has taken place in Wahet El-Nagah farm, Khatatba village, Menoufia governorate, Egypt in the year 2005, in order to use the ability of rice-straw mulching as cheap farm residue, to reduce the effect of deficit irrigation on highly sensitive crop for water deficit.

Evaluation of Different Mulching Methods and Its Impact on Soil Microbiota
Journal of Pure and Applied MicrobiologyConventional agricultural practices rely on the usage of synthetic herbicides to control weed proliferation in the absence of mulching, potentially leading to soil dysbiosis.

The effect of different mulches on the growth and yield of organically grown strawberry [PDF]
, 2003 Different mulches were studied in field trials over a three-year period under organic production in Mikkeli and Ruukki. The mulching materials were black plastic, flax fibre mat (woodchips+buckwheat husk in 2002), green mass, straw, buckwheat husk, birch
