Summary

Researchers studied the application of humic acid-based organic liquid mulching film as an alternative to conventional plastic mulching film to promote green agriculture and reduce 'white pollution' from plastic residues. The study examined the liquid film's effects on biological activity, soil improvement, and integration of fertilizer and pesticide functions through spray application.

Body Systems

Mulching film is an important measure to promote agricultural production income and increase, the current widely used plastic mulching film has high stability, difficult to decompose, resulting in "agricultural white pollution", the development and application of degradable mulching film has become a solution. This case focuses on the study of organic multifunctional liquid mulching film with humic acid as the main raw material, which plays a unique role in promoting biological activity and soil improvement, the application of "liquid" spray film, the integration of fertilizer, pesticides, mulching film in one multi-functional comprehensive effect, to clarify its functional characteristics, alternative feasibility and the promotion of green agricultural development, and put forward the existing problems and countermeasures. This paper provides technical support and practical demonstration for the elimination of exogenous pollutants in farmland, and looks forward to the broad application prospects of this liquid mulch film in environmental protection and other aspects.

Are mulch biofilms used in agriculture an environmentally friendly solution? - An insight into their biodegradability and ecotoxicity using key organisms in soil ecosystems

Researchers assessed the biodegradation and ecotoxicity of a commercial biodegradable mulch biofilm in soil systems. The study found that while marketed as environmentally friendly alternatives to conventional plastic mulch, biodegradable films did not fully degrade under natural soil conditions as certification standards would predict. The results suggest that more rigorous testing under realistic field conditions is needed before assuming these products are safe for soil ecosystems.
