Beyond the color of mulch

In this episode, we’ll talk about how to efficiently manage solar radiation with the different mulch colors (clear, black, white on black, silver on black, green photoselective…), how it can affect the color selection of the exposed surface to your crops. Our guest is Javier Pery, an expert in mulch from Spain with more than 10 years of experience in this field. Some of the questions we answer:

• Given that range of colors, what are the benefits of clear mulch in crops?
• Or when would it be advisable to use a clear mulch in a crop?
• Examples of crop type or climatic conditions ideal for White on black mulch
• What is the relationship between mulch color and how long it can stay in the field itself?
