- Expert statement : (Bio)degradable mulching films OWS’ most recent expert statement on the possible accumulation of plastics in the soil is now available for download
- Expert statement : (Bio)degradable mulching films The first part discusses the biochemical pathway of biodegradation and more particularly the meaning of complete biodegradation in soil. The second part touches on the possible accumulation of plastics in the soil as a result of repetitive use of both non-biodegradable and biodegradable mulching films.
