Hi everyone,
I am researching plastic within agriculture, my father started using plastics to cover hay in the 1960s and since then plastics have increased. Therefore I would like to investigate the use of plastics today within crop cover such as plastic mulch. My father said scientists have made us use a lot of plastics since the 1980s and now there's bits of plastics all over the fields.
I'm interested in any farmers experience with plastic waste within agriculture, and perhaps the use of plastic today on your farms,
Also if anyone has experience with any new sustainable plastics, and their development and use within agriculture?
I'm hoping to help in the future with agriculture and reducing plastic waste,
Any replies would be much appreciated,
Thanks,
J
