Evaluating the effectiveness of biodegradable mulches in horticulture

Daniela C Ruiz

This research paper investigates the effectiveness of biodegradable mulches in horticulture, focusing on their impact on soil health, weed control, moisture retention, and crop yield. Biodegradable mulches offer an eco-friendly alternative to traditional plastic mulches, aiming to reduce environmental pollution and improve sustainability in horticultural practices. The study includes controlled field experiments on selected horticultural crops, comparing biodegradable mulches with conventional plastic mulches and bare soil. The results provide insights into the benefits and limitations of biodegradable mulches, guiding better horticultural practices.
