Abstract Rapid industrialization and urbanization have resulted in elevated global temperature over the years consequently disturbing balance of agro-ecological systems worldwide. Therefore, new eco-friendly agricultural practices for sustainable food production are needed. Mulching could potentially serve purpose by reducing soil evaporation, conserving moisture, controlling temperature, weed growth, improving microbial activities. Additionally, mulches provide economical, aesthetic,...
