Mulching may be defined as a practice of covering the surface of soil with any materials to reduce evaporation and also reduce too much fluctuation in diurnal soil temperatures near the root zone of plant. Mulching is a general term used for a protective soil cover by use of organic manure, leaves, straw, grasses, synthetic plastics etc. It reduces the transpiration and evaporation loss and also reduces energy supply to the evaporating site by cutting off solar radiation falling on the ground.
