During the day, dedicated to the use of biostimulants in agriculture, the various experimental tests currently being carried out at the Experimental Center were also presented, including one concerning the use of biodegradable mulching film made of Mater-Bi on watermelon crops.
The Mater-Bi biodegradable mulch film offers an agronomically and environmentally efficient alternative, because, at the end of the crop cycle, it does not need to be removed or disposed of, as it is biodegraded into the soil, reducing the production of waste, the mechanical recycling of which may be technically or economically unprofitable.
