What to pay attention to when choosing grass-proof cloth and laying grass-proof cloth in orchard

       In order to prevent weeds, many fruit growers use grass-proof cloth and black mulch to prevent weeds. A black mulch was laid in the orchard. The principle of weeding with black mulch is mainly to prevent sunlight from photosynthesis of weeds and then achieve the purpose of preventing weeds from growing. However, black mulch is very easy to age, so it needs to be replaced frequently. Later, a new type of weed-preventing thing called a weed-proof cloth was developed. Its principle of weed control is the same as that of black mulch. Many farmers still don’t know very well. In fact, weed-proof cloth has many functions besides preventing weeds. There are also many different prices for grass-proof cloth.

       Nowadays, many people are slowly using grass-proof cloth. In fact, it is a kind of plastic woven bag, and it is relatively strong and durable, because it has been treated with anti-aging treatment, and if you step on it, it will not have much effect. , It’s very easy to pack it up. There are also two kinds of grass-proof cloth on the market, one is PP, which is the same material as fertilizer bags, and the other is PE, which is the same material as drip irrigation pipes.

　   But this kind of thing because we use it frequently, so we must buy something that is more practical, and the key is to be durable, otherwise it is too cheap and may need to be re-purchased after a year. In fact, it is very uneconomical. It takes about 500 yuan per acre to lay the grass-proof cloth, and it can be used for about four to five years.

       Under normal circumstances, weed-proof cloths are used in orchards. In addition, weed-proof cloths can also protect water. When the sun is more toxic, it can prevent the water from evaporating too fast. If it rains, it can also prevent too much water in the field. A lot of rain has a wide range of effects.

       But it also has its own shortcomings. For example, if you want to plan fertilization, there may be some obstacles, which will be more difficult. For granular fertilizer, you need to lift the grass-proof cloth laid on the side of the fruit tree and fertilize it. Recover it afterwards, so it is recommended to use water-soluble fertilizer.

       When choosing a weed-proof cloth, don’t choose too high a square gram. If the weight is too high, the water-permeability and air permeability will become worse. For example, let the roots of crops float. We must make trade-offs.
