Environmental protection characteristics and agricultural value of fully biodegradable mulch film

Fully biodegradable mulch film is a new type of agricultural film made of bio-based polymer materials such as polybutylene adipate/terephthalate, polylactic acid and degradable starch as the main raw materials, through advanced blending and modification process. Unlike traditional polyethylene mulch, this type of mulch can be gradually decomposed by microorganisms in the natural environment and finally converted into water and carbon dioxide, achieving true residue-free and pollution-free, avoiding the "white pollution" problem caused by plastic residues, and is an important material basis for promoting the green transformation of agriculture.
From the perspective of agricultural application, fully biodegradable mulch film has excellent practical performance. After covering the soil surface, it can effectively increase ground temperature, reduce water evaporation, inhibit weed growth, and reduce the risk of pests and diseases, thereby improving the growth environment of crops and increasing yield and quality. According to different crop growth cycles and climatic conditions, the service life of degradable mulch can be flexibly adjusted, usually degrading between 3 and 6 months, completely covering the planting needs of most vegetables, fruits and cash crops.
The widespread use of traditional plastic mulch in farmland has brought many environmental problems. Plastic film residues accumulate in the soil, destroying the soil structure, hindering the circulation of water and air, affecting the ecological balance of microorganisms, and may enter the food chain through the soil, forming microplastic pollution, posing potential risks to the ecosystem and human health. In contrast, fully biodegradable mulch film does not require manual recycling after use, and can degrade itself under natural conditions, avoiding the accumulation of plastic film residues and truly realizing the environmental protection concept of "no worries after use".
From an economic perspective, the application of fully biodegradable mulch film in agricultural production has brought significant cost savings and value-added effects to farmers and the entire industrial chain.
1. Save recycling and processing costs and reduce labor intensity
Traditional plastic mulch needs to be manually recycled and processed after use, which not only consumes a lot of time and manpower, but also involves complex processes such as transportation, classification, and cleaning, which increases the indirect cost of agricultural production. Especially in vast farmland or remote areas, plastic film residues are difficult to completely recycle, resulting in the long-term existence of the "white pollution" problem. The fully biodegradable mulch film greatly simplifies the field management workflow because it can be naturally degraded in farmland without recycling and processing. Farmers no longer need to invest a lot of manpower to pick up and clean up residual film, which significantly reduces labor intensity and management difficulty and saves labor costs. This is especially important for agricultural production entities with tight labor or large farmland areas, which improves production efficiency and benefits.
2. Improve agricultural production efficiency and economic benefits
The elimination of the recycling process not only saves labor costs, but also reduces the frequency of use and maintenance costs of mechanical equipment, and indirectly reduces agricultural production inputs. Farmers can invest the saved time and resources in other production links, such as field management, pest control, etc., to improve overall operation efficiency.
In addition, the fully biodegradable mulch film has good physical properties, which can effectively inhibit weed growth, maintain soil moisture and temperature, promote healthy crop growth, and increase yield and quality. High-yield and high-quality agricultural products bring higher market returns, enhance farmers' economic income and industrial competitiveness.
3. Promote soil health and enhance land use value
The products of fully biodegradable mulch film after degradation are mainly water, carbon dioxide and trace organic residues, which can promote soil microbial activity, increase soil organic matter content, and improve soil structure. Good soil structure helps to improve soil aeration and water retention capacity, promote root development and nutrient absorption. The improvement of soil fertility directly promotes the sustained and efficient growth of crops, reduces dependence on chemical fertilizers, reduces production costs, and helps protect the ecological environment. In the long run, this virtuous cycle significantly improves the production potential and utilization value of land, laying a solid foundation for the sustainable development of agriculture.
In terms of social benefits, the promotion of fully biodegradable mulch film has brought far-reaching and multi-level positive impacts.
1. Reduce agricultural non-point source pollution and ensure ecological and environmental safety
Agricultural non-point source pollution mainly comes from pesticides, fertilizers, and plastic film residues. Among them, the residue of traditional plastic mulch is called an important part of "white pollution". Plastic film residues are difficult to degrade and accumulate in the soil for a long time. It not only destroys the soil structure, reduces the soil permeability and water retention capacity, but also may pollute groundwater and surrounding water bodies, affecting the health and biodiversity of the ecosystem. The promotion of the use of fully biodegradable mulch film can effectively solve this problem. This material can be decomposed into harmless water and carbon dioxide by microorganisms in the farmland environment, reducing plastic residues, reducing non-point source pollution load, protecting soil and water safety from the source, helping to maintain the virtuous cycle of agricultural ecosystems, and promoting the harmonious coexistence of agriculture and the environment.
2. Responding to the national ecological civilization construction and green development strategy
At present, my country attaches great importance to the construction of ecological civilization, puts forward the development concept of "green water and green mountains are gold and silver mountains", and emphasizes the coordination of promoting economic and social development with ecological environmental protection. Fully biodegradable mulch film film, as an innovative green material, perfectly fits this strategic direction.
The country has introduced a series of policies and measures to support green agriculture and sustainable development, encourage the reduction of plastic pollution in farmland, and promote environmentally friendly agricultural film products. The dual drive of policy drive and market demand has effectively promoted the research and development, production and application of fully biodegradable mulch film film, and promoted the green transformation of agricultural production methods. Through the promotion and application of green technology, the agricultural industry chain will be promoted to develop in the direction of low carbon, environmental protection and high efficiency, and the overall level of agricultural modernization will be improved.
3. Promote the upgrading of agricultural production methods to environmental protection, high efficiency and intelligence
The application of fully biodegradable mulch film not only improves agricultural environmental protection standards, but also promotes innovation in agricultural production management methods. After farmers and agricultural enterprises use degradable mulch, they can avoid the recycling and processing of traditional plastic films, reduce labor intensity and management costs, and improve production efficiency.
In addition, combined with smart agricultural technologies such as intelligent monitoring and precision fertilization, the use of fully biodegradable mulch film can better cooperate with scientific management, realize integrated water and fertilizer management and crop growth environment optimization, and enhance the controllability and stability of agricultural production. As a result, agricultural production is not only more environmentally friendly, but also more economically efficient and sustainable.
4. Enhance the market competitiveness and brand value of green agricultural products
With the continuous enhancement of consumers' environmental awareness, the market demand for green, organic and sustainably produced agricultural products is growing. Agricultural products grown with fully biodegradable mulch film are more likely to be recognized and favored by consumers due to their environmental friendliness and ecological safety.
By promoting environmentally friendly planting methods, enterprises can not only respond to social responsibilities and enhance their social image, but also create differentiated brands and win higher market added value. The establishment of green brands further promotes the development of the circular economy and forms a win-win situation for enterprises, consumers and the environment.
