Conclusive trials on biodegradable mulching films : results of the BIOMALEG project

AUTHOR : Stéphane Bruzaud, University Professor, Université Bretagne Sud
Since 2021, the BIOMALEG project has been studying the level of degradation of mulching films. After last year’s presentation of the project in Plasticulture Magazine No. 142, the first publications have just appeared. Stéphane Bruzaud, who is in charge of the project at the Université Bretagne Sud, tells us about the main findings.
The aim of the BIOMALEG project was to answer producers’ questions about the fate of biodegradable mulching film in the soil. This 3-year project, funded by ADEME (APR GRAINE), began in 2021. It brought together IRDL, the project leader, the Aurey Experimental Station¹ and INRAE’s GenoSol platform. The BIOMALEG project has provided a better understanding of the fate of plastic mulches, particularly biodegradable mulches, in agricultural soils
There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn't anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet. It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of model sentence structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable. The generated Lorem Ipsum is therefore always free from repetition, injected humour, or non-characteristic words etc.
