Influences of high-reflective mulching membrane coupled with a drip sub-irrigation system on temperature and humidity of the soil

The present study deals with an original application of RR materials to the agriculture sector, evaluating the effectiveness of a high-reflective mulching membrane treated with glass micro-spheres and coupled with a drip sub-irrigation system. An experimental facility, in which this technology is ex...
