Understanding Biodegradable Mulch Films and Their Role in Agriculture
Biodegradable mulch films are soil covers made from materials that naturally break down in the environment. Used extensively in agriculture, they serve to suppress weeds, retain soil moisture, and regulate temperature around crops. Their ability to decompose over time reduces plastic waste accumulation and supports healthier soil ecosystems, making them an eco-friendly alternative to conventional plastic mulches.

Rising Demand for Organic Crops Boosting Biodegradable Mulch Films
One of the main factors propelling the demand for biodegradable mulch films is the growing market for organic food crops. These crops are cultivated without synthetic chemicals or genetically modified organisms, relying instead on sustainable natural methods. The rise in organic farming is driven by consumers seeking healthier, pesticide-free food and increased environmental consciousness. Biodegradable mulch films align well with organic farming principles by improving soil health, controlling weeds, and minimizing environmental impact. For example, according to the UK Government in May 2023, the total area under organic farming in the UK reached 509 thousand hectares in 2022, marking a 0.4% increase from the previous year. This upward trend in organic cultivation supports greater use of biodegradable mulch films.
