Sustainable Mulching Practices
Sustainable Mulching Practices
Sustainable mulching practices are an effective method to conserve soil moisture, regulate temperature, and suppress weeds in both crop and horticultural production. Organic mulches like straw, leaves, or grass clippings add nutrients to the soil as they decompose, while inorganic mulches, such as gravel or plastic, help with long-term weed control and soil protection. Mulching reduces the need for synthetic fertilizers and herbicides, supports soil microbial activity, and helps maintain a healthier growing environment. Proper mulch management, such as maintaining the correct thickness and replenishing regularly, can maximize these benefits and promote sustainable agricultural practices.
