Abstract

At this time, the majority of farmers and growers utilize plastic polybags at the initial stage of the seed germination process. It is common knowledge that the use of plastic can be detrimental to the natural environment. In an effort to reduce farmers and growers reliance on plastic poly bags, Biodegradable Mini Polybags have been developed as an alternative packaging material for agricultural products. In addition, the use of this product can be seen in the process of transplanting before and after, where it is apparent that things are much simpler if utilizing this Biodegradable Mini Polybags. It is no longer necessary for farmers and growers to remove seedlings from their polybags before to transplanting, at which point it can be put directly into the soil. It is therefore completely unnecessary to risk injuring the seedling while removing it from the seedling tray or plastic polybag in which it was grown. Additionally, this Biodegradable Mini Polybag is made of cornstarch, which is a biodegradable plastic that breaks down in composting conditions. With the help of this product, the consumption of plastic polybags in agricultural settings can be cut down, thereby preventing further damage to the environment caused by the use of plastic materials.
