Every farmer wish to grow good quality produce and puts huge time and efforts in plant care and development. Mulching is a quite old and effective technique in the agriculture sector. It provides a protective layer of a material which covers the ground around the plant and promotes plant growth. There are variety of benefits of using mulching. Below are some of the important benefits of using mulching:
Water conservation-In country like India, where there is water scarcity in many of the regions, Water conservation remains one of the core advantage of mulching. Mulching helps to prevent direct evaporation of soil water hence the less water required for plants.
Root development– The overall plant growth in directly depends on its root development. So in short root development is the development of the plant. Use of mulch creates the essential right climate for the root development resulting in plant quality and growth.
Soil Moisture– For the plant growth water moisture in the soil plays important role. With the help of mulching evaporation of water is less and the soil retains moisture for long time.
Weed Prevention and control– Weed is one the biggest obstacles for plants growth, Thus it become essential to control weed growth around the plants. One the most important benefit of mulching is that it prevents and controls the weed growth as it prevent the photosynthesis process.
Insulation affect- Mulching inhibits the affect of the fluctuation of temperature on the soil. It provides insulation affect on the soil which helps keep the soil in constant temperature. In winter it prevents soil from rapidly freezing and while in summer it controls the temperature of a soil.
The quality of crop, Fruit and Flowers- Mulching not only improves the quality of crop but it also protect the fruits and flowers. Mulch is a layer which prevents the direct contact between soil and fruits, flower and other parts of plant, so it helps improve the overall quality of the same.
Pest Control– Destructive insect is another problem for plants. Mulching acts as a barrier against pest. The role of synthetic mulching plays important role in pest control. Reflective plastic mulch remarkably reduces arthropod pests. The light reflection confuses pests, resulting in controlling pest more effectively than insecticides
