Sustainable agriculture necessitates innovative solutions to reduce environmental impact while enhancing productivity. Algal-based bio-mulch has been shown to be a highly potential eco-friendly option based on its biodegradable nature, renewable feedstocks, and potential to enrich soils. The investigation here centers around algal species selection, processing of bio-mulch films, and comparative assessment with synthetic and other bio-based mulches. Physical, mechanical, and thermal characteristics of the bio-mulch made from algae are tested, as well as its functioning in farming conditions. In addition, biodegradation tests measure its degradation rate in the ground and how it affects microbial growth. The findings identify the merits and demerits of algal-based bio-mulches, highlighting their prospects in sustainable agriculture while mitigating environmental impacts of conventional mulch films.
