ISHS Acta Horticulturae 72: Symposium on the Timing of Field vegetable Production

TEMPORARY COVERING OF DRILLED LINES OF VEGETABLE CROPS WITH TRANSPARENT POLYTHENE FILM

Author:   E.N.C. Meijer
Abstract:
This paper reports developments at the Institute of Agricultural Engineering in developing new mulch laying techniques. The fully mechanised mulch system uses narrow bands of polythene to cover individual rows. A tractor-mounted hydraulically driven implement has been developed by the Institute to remove the plastic strips from the crop.
