Since weeds have no chance to germinate, you automatically eliminate the need for weeding.

4. The material creates unfavorable conditions that do not allow fungus to develop, and also prevents the area from being filled with slugs, which can harm not only strawberries, but also other crops.

5. The use of agrofilm prevents drying out and weathering.

6. Finally, the material is designed for repeated use – agrofilm can be used on beds about 3-4 times.
