Mulch film improves nutrient efficiency by protecting the soil surface and creating a controlled growing environment. By reducing water runoff and soil erosion, it prevents valuable nutrients from being washed away during heavy rainfall or irrigation. The film also minimizes direct exposure of soil to wind and sun, which helps reduce nutrient volatilization and surface nutrient loss. As a result, more nutrients remain available in the root zone where crops can absorb them effectively.

In addition, mulch film supports efficient fertilizer use when combined with drip irrigation systems. Nutrients delivered through fertigation are directed precisely to the plant roots beneath the film, reducing wastage and uneven distribution. Since weed growth is suppressed, crops face less competition for nutrients, further improving nutrient uptake efficiency. Together, these benefits help farmers lower fertilizer usage, reduce input costs, and enhance overall crop productivity while maintaining healthier soil conditions.
