Fluid Mulch Sprayed on the Field and Overlaid with Pigmented Latex: Influence on Growth and Yield of Eggplant in California,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
To study the effect of reflecting mulches on growth pattern and yield components of eggplant (Solanum melongena L., cv. 'Millionaire'), beds were treated with synthetic latex film as a mulch base. Colored pigments derived from oilbased paints in black, white, red, blue, yellow and silver were sprayed on the mulch base to provide differential coloration. Each experimental unit included three rows of 7.3 meters with eight plants per row. Each treatment was replicated in four blocks at two separate locations. Plants grown on silverpigmented beds produced significantly greater fruit numbers and total fruit weight than other treatments. After eight harvests, up to 236% yield increase was observed in silver plots compared to the control. Initial flower and fruit set formations before harvest were significantly higher in silver plots compared to other treatments. Nonsignificant differences were observed with measurements of plant height and total dry weight of shoot and root within the treatments. It is assumed that altering microenvironment around the plants by mulch surface color is responsible for this variation.
By changing our most important processes and
products, we have already made a big leap forward. This ranges from the
increased use of more sustainable fibers to the use of more
environmentally friendly printing processes to the development of
efficient waste management in our value chain.
