Biodegradable mulch film is a thin sheet of biodegradable material, usually made from plant starch and often enhanced with eco-friendly additives, used to cover the soil surface around crops. Biodegradable mulch films find applications in various farming activities, from enhancing crop yield to reducing pesticide use. The demand for biodegradable mulch films is rising with sustainable farming practices gaining traction owing to the end-users such as horticulturists, landscapers, and eco-conscious gardeners largely utilizing these films in agricultural operations. The biodegradable mulch films market has been expanding rapidly due to rising environmental concerns affecting the crop quality and the need for effective solutions such as biodegradable mulch films for the production of high-quality crops. Governmental support for eco-friendly farming practices, trending organic farming, and potential bans on plastic mulches offer significant growth for the biodegradable mulch films market. However, higher costs compared to conventional plastic films, lack of product awareness, and product durability and effectiveness issues pose market challenges. Innovation and research can help overcome these challenges, focusing on developing cost-effective, superior-quality biodegradable mulch films. Ongoing research on new biodegradable material varieties, enhanced product durability, improved decomposition rates, and nutrient-enriching films during decomposition are further creating future growth prospects for the biodegradable mulch films market.
