Mulch Film – Smart Technology to Protect Soil and Increase Production
In light of modern agricultural challenges, including climate change, water scarcity, and rising production costs, the use of mulch film has become a necessity, not a luxury.
Mulch is a thin plastic film spread over the soil surface around plant roots to create a more balanced and efficient agricultural environment. It is primarily used to improve soil properties, reduce water loss, and control weeds, resulting in significantly increased crop productivity and quality.

Mulch Film – Smart Technology to Protect Soil and Increase Production
In light of modern agricultural challenges, including climate change, water scarcity, and rising production costs, the use of mulch film has become a necessity, not a luxury.
Mulch is a thin plastic film spread over the soil surface around plant roots to create a more balanced and efficient agricultural environment. It is primarily used to improve soil properties, reduce water loss, and control weeds, resulting in significantly increased crop productivity and quality.
Improve soil temperature
Mulch acts as a natural thermal insulator. In winter, it helps raise soil temperature and encourage root growth. In summer, it can protect plants from sudden heat waves and maintain temperatures within a suitable growth range.
Weed control without pesticides
Mulching reduces soil exposure to sunlight, thus preventing the growth of weeds that compete with crops for water and nutrients.
The result? A cleaner environment around the plant without the need for chemical pesticides that can negatively impact soil health or fruit quality.
Reducing water loss
Mulch acts as a barrier that prevents rapid evaporation of water from the soil surface, which helps retain moisture for longer periods and reduces the number of irrigations. This saves effort and costs in irrigation systems, especially in dry areas or areas with limited water resources.
Reducing erosion and soil erosion
In areas exposed to strong winds and heavy rains, mulch helps stabilize the topsoil and prevents essential nutrients from being leached away from the root zone.
Protecting the crop from diseases and damage
When crops grow directly above the soil surface, they are more likely to become contaminated or develop mold due to contact with the soil.
Mulch prevents this contact, keeping the fruit clean and of good quality throughout the growing period and until harvest.
How is mulch used in fields?
Prepare the soil and level it thoroughly.
Install a drip irrigation system under the film to ensure direct water distribution to the plant roots.
Carefully spread the mulch along the planting lines and secure it on the sides with soil or special stakes.
Make small holes in the film in specific locations for planting seedlings or seeds.
After planting, continue watering and fertilizing normally, but with greater efficiency.
What crops benefit from using mulch?
Mulch is suitable for a wide range of crops, most notably:
Vegetables: such as tomatoes, zucchini, peppers, eggplant, cucumbers, lettuce, and onions.
Fruits: such as strawberries, cantaloupe, watermelon, and grapes.
Medicinal and aromatic plants: such as mint, basil, and chamomile.
Ornamental plants and seedlings: in agricultural nurseries.
Is mulch suitable for all soil types?
Yes, but it’s best used in well-prepared soils with adequate drainage. Care must also be taken to choose the right type of mulch for the season, crop, and soil type.
Mulch Installation in Modern Irrigation Systems:
Agricultural mulch achieves its best results when used with drip irrigation systems, as water covers only the root zone without wastage, enhancing efficiency and saving significant amounts of water and fertilizer.
Summary
Agricultural mulch is one of the pillars of modern, smart agriculture. It not only protects the soil, but is also an effective means of improving production, reducing costs, and preserving the agricultural environment. Adopting it in your agricultural projects is a smart investment that yields benefits in the short and long term.
