About Agricultural Films
Agricultural films are used to protect crops or fodder from the wind, rain, and other environmental effects that may damage the harvest or cattle feed. Greenhouse and mulch films are used to protect crops, and silage films are used to extend the life of the fodder by safeguarding it from harsh environmental effects. Greenhouse films are used to cover greenhouse structures. These films can evenly distribute the heat within the structure. Mulch films are long sheets that are laid on farms, and crops grow through it.
Technavio’s analysts forecast the global agricultural films market to grow at a CAGR of 7.18% during the period 2017-2021.
