Advantages of Plastics in Agriculture Industry

Plastics and agriculture have become inseparable. The main advantages of plastics in agriculture industry are described below.

• Water conservation: Plastics help to establish irrigation systems such as drip irrigation and sprinkler irrigation to achieve efficient water resources management. These systems can transport water directly to plant roots and reduce the risk of evaporation, thereby minimizing the waste of water resources.
• Crop protection and pest control: Plastics play a key role in crop protection through the manufacture of plastic mulches and covers. These materials can improve agricultural yields and nutritional characteristics and limit insect infestations, solar radiation exposure and meteorological events such as hail and storms.
• Soil protection: Using plastic materials to create protective covers can be effective in preventing soil erosion and nutrient loss. The practice not only maintains soil fertility, but also reduces the risk of contamination of nearby water bodies.
• Prolong the crop growing season: Plastics can be used to prepare greenhouse films, which play a very important role in agricultural production. They can provide a stable growth environment for crops, so that crops can grow and reproduce in cold seasons.
• Precision farming and automation: Plastics can be used to develop agricultural equipment, sensors and drone components. These devices facilitate precision farming, enabling farmers to optimize resource allocation, minimize waste, and increase productivity through data-driven decision-making.
• Packaging and storage: Plastics contribute to efficient post-harvest handling, packaging and storage of agricultural products. Plastic packaging materials help maintain the freshness and quality of produce, extend shelf life and reduce food waste.

Plastic Applications for Agriculture

Plastics have a variety of applications in the agriculture industry, including but not limited to:
