Mulch Film at the Heart of Strawberry Growing
Strawberries are planted early on Morocco’s coast, where the season starts cool and the sun grows strong. Mulch film does three jobs at once: it warms the soil for early roots, blocks weeds that would compete for water, and keeps fruit off the soil so it stays clean.
Growers match film color to the season – black for the standard cycle and red where fruit quality is the priority – supplied as rolls cut to bed width.
