There are several types of agricultural plastic row covers, including floating row covers, mulch film, and low tunnels. Floating row covers are lightweight fabrics that are placed directly over crops to protect them from pests and harsh weather conditions. Mulch film is a plastic sheet that is laid on top of the soil to conserve moisture, control weeds, and regulate soil temperature. Low tunnels are semi-permanent structures made of plastic hoops or arches covered with plastic film, creating a mini-greenhouse effect for crops.
There are several different types of agricultural plastic row covers, including floating row covers, low tunnels, high tunnels, and greenhouse covers.
There are several different types of agricultural plastic row covers, including clear plastic covers, opaque covers, perforated covers, and floating row covers. Clear plastic covers are transparent and allow sunlight to penetrate, promoting growth and trapping heat. Opaque covers, on the other hand, block sunlight and are typically used to control weed growth. Perforated covers have small holes that allow for airflow while still protecting plants. Floating row covers are lightweight and often used to protect plants from pests and frost.
