Enhancement of soil Moisture preservation by Date-Palm Mulch
New use of date-palm as mulch is proposed to improve the soil moisture retention capacity from a viewpoint of the application of unused materials to agriculture in the Middle East. Therefore, heat and moisture transfer experiments were conducted using soil columns and date-palm chips. This paper describes the performance of the mulch, i. e. evaporation control and suppression of soil-temperature rise associated with incoming short-wave.
