Plastic mulch  is a product used, in a similar fashion to mulch, to suppress weeds and conserve water in crop production and landscaping. Certain plastic mulches also act as a barrier to keep methyl bromide, both a powerful fumigant and ozone depleter, in the soil. Crops grow through slits or holes in thin plastic sheeting. Plastic mulch is often used in conjunction with drip irrigation. Some research has been done using different colors of mulch to affect crop growth.

Mulch film Usage:

Mulches have been used for years with great results of earlier, better quality vegetable harvests. Mulches help increase soil temperature, retain soil moisture, provide weed control, decrease leaching of fertilizers, and decrease the need for general cultivation around the plants.

• Black Plastic Mulch for tomato, pepper, eggplant, vine crops, and more.
• Blue for melons and squash.
• Brown for higher soil temperatures.
• Clear Mulch, SRM Olive for higher soil temperatures for crops such as vine plants.
• Metallic for insect control.
• Paper Mulch for crops that would normally benefit from other mulches, without the

need for expensive labor to remove it at the end of the season, as it will degrade.
• Red for early, cool season tomatoes.
• White on Black for cooler temperature crops such as lettuce, cauliflower, and broccoli.
• Solar combined benefits of a black and clear mulch.

Benefits:

The use of plastic mulches has many benefits such as:

Earlier planting dates for  alters soil temperature

Soil moisture retention

Weed management 

Reduction in the leaching of fertilizer

Improved crop quality 

Reduction in soil compaction

Reduction in root damage
