Introduction:

• 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’
• While natural mulches such as leaf, straw, dead leaves and compost have been used for centuries, during the last 60 years the advent of synthetic materials has altered the methods and benefits of mulching
• The research as well as field data available on effect of synthetic mulches make a vast volume of useful literature
• When compared to other mulches 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
• The suppression of evaporation also has a supplementary effect; it prevents the rise of water containing salt, which is important in countries with high salt content water resources

Advantages:

• It is completely impermeable to water.
• It prevents the direct evaporation of moisture form the soil and thus limits the water losses and conserves moisture.
• By evaporation suppression, it prevents the rise of water containing salts.
• Mulch can facilitate fertilizer placement and reduce the loss of plant nutrient through leaching.
• Mulches can also provide a barrier to soil pathogens
• Opaque mulches prevent germination of annual weeds from receiving light
• Reflective mulches will repel certain insects
• 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.
• Synthetic mulches play a major role in soil solarisation process.
• Mulches develop a micro climatic underside of the sheet, which is higher in carbon-oxide due to the higher level of microbial activity.
• Under mulch, the soil structure is maintained during cropping period
• Early germination almost 2-3 days.
• Better modulation in crops like Groundnut.
• Less nematodes population.
• Water erosion is completely averted since soil is completely covered form bearing action of rain drops.
• When compared to organic mulches, it serves for a longer period.

Moisture conservation:

• Plastic film with its moisture barrier properties does not allow the soil moisture to escape Water that evaporates from the soil surface under mulch film, condenses on the lower surface of the film and falls back as droplets.
• Thus moisture is preserved for several days and increases the period between two irrigation.
• The irrigation water or rainfall either moves into the soil thru holes on the mulch around the plant area or through the UN-mulched area.

Weed control:

• Black plastic film does not allow the sunlight to pass through on to the soil
• Photosynthesis does not take place in the absence of sunlight below black film hence, it arrests weed growth

Limitations:

• They are costly to use in commercial production when compared to organic mulches.
• Probability of ‘burning’ or ‘scorching’ of the young pants due to high temperature of black film.
• Difficulty in application of top dressed fertilizer
• Reptile movement and rodent activities are experienced in some places.
• More runoff
• Environmental pollution
• Difficult in machinery movement
• Can not be used for more than one season using thin mulches
• Weed penetration with thin films
• Toxic to livestock
