Paper mulch to aid pineapple growth in Hawaii
In Hawaii, a paper mulch made from Basasse cane pulp is being tested by pineapple growers. Invented by C F Bekart, the mulch suppresses weeds, lowers labor costs, and may boost yield by about three tons per acre. The mulch is laid in rows before planting with crowns set through holes in the paper apron. It reduces surface evaporation and keeps the topsoil from baking.
