What is orchard mulching?

Orchard mulching is a leading agricultural practice that not only improves productivity but also protects our precious urban orchard. Mulching the orchard means covering the soil with a protective layer such as Novamulch mulch. The importance of orchard mulching in an urban garden is immeasurable; Its main benefit lies in its ability to maintain soil moisture, especially in the warmer seasons, thus reducing the frequency of irrigation. In addition, this effective method counteracts the proliferation of weeds, increases fertility and improves soil structure. Being an economical and environmentally friendly option, garden mulching is a fundamental choice for an efficient orchard.

Self-sufficiency is an excellent way to reduce your shopping basket bill, especially that of basic products such as fruits and vegetables, with something very simple: taking advantage of any available space on balconies, terraces, rooftops or other urban surfaces to grow one or more food.

By easily harvesting from home (or close to it) and ensuring that this crop is free of pesticides and unnatural fertilizers, among other substances, we increase the quality and flavor of our food, lower our grocery bill, and generate small CO2 sinks, so necessary in big cities.

The size does not matter: whether the orchard occupies a small planter, a growing table or extends over a plot. We can call an urban orchard any surface of land that, in the urban context, is intended for growing vegetables, herbs or aromatic plants, generally for own consumption or for the community.

Orchard mulching can significantly increase the productivity of an urban plot thanks to its influential role in optimizing various key factors of plant growth. First, mulching helps retain soil moisture, minimizing water loss through evaporation and allowing for more efficient use of irrigation.

In this way, the roots of the plants have a constant supply of water, promoting solid and healthy growth. In addition, mulching prevents direct sunlight from reaching the soil, combating the germination of weeds that compete for nutrients.

Organic mulch, as it decomposes, enriches the soil with essential nutrients. This enrichment not only encourages good plant growth, but also increases the yield and quality of the harvest, resulting in a more productive urban garden.
