Various mulching materials are presented on the modern agro market: mulching film, agrofibre, as well as agro-fabric, which is most popular among farmers.

Woven agrotechnical fabric has found wide use in agriculture, horticulture, horticulture and landscape design. Agrotechnical weed control is used for mulching the soil, for covering the aisles of strawberries, blueberries and other berry crops. Mulching agrotechnical fabric is also used in landscaping for creating flower beds, rock gardens and rockeries, for planting thuja and other decorative conifers. And in nurseries and garden centers, such a landscape fabric serves to shelter a soil area in order to prevent plant roots from growing into the ground through drainage holes in pots.

A Covering Agrotextile Used For Growing Plants In The Open Field Or In A Greenhouse Performs Many Important Functions:
- Protects plants from weeds (due to its dense structure, the mulching fabric does not allow sunlight to pass through, weakens the process of photosynthesis, thereby preventing the germination of weeds);
- Reduces the need for herbicide application (mulching agrotechnical fabric makes it difficult for weeds to grow in the garden, thereby reducing the time for planting, eliminating the need for weeding the beds and using an anti-weed agent);
- Improves the temperature regime of the soil (agrotextile for mulching contributes to the rapid heating of the soil in spring);
- Protects plants from fluctuations in day and night temperatures;
- Prevents the formation of mold and rot under the coating;
- Facilitates easy removal of leaves and debris;
- Well passes moisture and air to the roots of plants (covering agrotechnical fabric reduces the evaporation of water from the ground and keeps the soil moist even in dry weather, providing a favorable microclimate for the intensive development of the root system of plants)
