Mulching Materials Market Insights, Current And Future Trends & Forecast 2018-2028 | Alpine Materials, LLC, Cowart Mulch Products, Inc., Woodland Mulch, Bailey Bark Materials, Inc.

Growing Demand for Organic Mulching Materials for Weed Control Purposes to Significantly Drive Global Market Demand

Organic mulching materials is expected to witness surging demand in the near future owing to its potential characteristics such as moderation of the soil temperature, soil protection, moisture conservation, nutrients as organic matter. However, high-cost of labor, limited effectiveness on the perennial weeds, overdue soil warming as well as potential to carry harbor pests and weed seeds is anticipated to restrain the growth of mulching materials market.

Organic mulching materials such as fresh-cut forage, straw and hay are expected to gain significant traction in mulching materials market as they hold the potential for easy use, suppresses weed germination and reduces evaporative losses of the soil moisture. Chipped brush, tree leaves and various forest-based mulching materials are anticipated to gain significant demand for small fruits as well as various other perennial crops purposes.

Horticultural sector is expected to drive the demand and supply for organic mulching materials such as straw and hay during the forecast period. Mulching materials such as hay helps in preventing soil erosion and crusting as well as adds large amounts of slow-release nutrients and organic matter, particularly potassium. Growing demand from horticultural farmers for affordable and easily available mulching materials is expected to further drive the supply of straw.

Market Outlook

Mulching materials are referred to the leaves, nut shells, and grass clipping, wood and bark chips and other natural and synthetic materials applied over a plant. The primary functions of mulching materials include soil nutrition and management, weed control and improve aesthetic value of the plants or trees applied. Importance of mulching materials has increased over the years due to rise in weather uncertainties mainly flooding and rapid urbanization leading to substantial soil losses. The application of mulches varies from its application purpose, seasons and stage of plant and tree. Generally, mulches are applied from mid- to late spring and autumn season in a year. Mulches also support in water conservation which lowers watering nearly 35-45%. Increasing water shortage across various parts of the world has limited water use for drinking and agricultural purposes.
