“…This event was recorded in tomato and radish plants. An increase in canopy increases shading on plastic mulch; this restricts direct interception of solar radiation and heat transfer from surrounding air and soil [34,35]. It is eminent that using coloured plastic mulches enhance the temperature of the soil.…”

Mulches are materials applied in a soil surface for different roles and purposes. Plastic mulches with different colour have been developed and utilized in different crop production systems. Using coloured plastic mulches is mainly focused in modifying the radiation budget and decreasing the soil water loss. Besides, it helps to regulate soil temperature, water use efficiency, plant growth, yield, quality and weed and insect infestation. In this review, the knowledge and possible application of coloured plastic mulches, which can improve the soil physical properties, growth, yield, and quality crops has been reviewed and discussed. The role of coloured plastic mulches to mitigate the harmful effect of environmental stress in crops is also examined. Various physicochemical processes leading to improved crop production under the effect of coloured plastic mulches are also discussed. The combined results indicated that, effect of coloured plastic mulches is highly significant on soil temperature, moisture and water holding capacity. While black and blue plastics increase soil temperature, clear and white decreases it. Higher number of fruits, number of roots, tubers and bulbs was recorded in use of coloured plastic mulches. Similarly, the TSS, Vitamin C and juice percentage of different plants also showed significant improvement. It is also reported that weed infestation and viral diseases is highly reduced. Coloured plastic mulches also have some negative impacts like, decrease growth and yield in some plants, increase pest infestation, microplastics contamination, soil puddling, soil structural loss and reduce activity of soil-microorganisms. Therefore, use of coloured plastic mulches require close inspection of interaction with factors like; cropping season, root zone temperature, crop type, insect pest infestation and water use efficiency factors.

“…The crop is cultivated worldwide on a large scale; its extensive cultivation is better due to its taste, high nutritional content, low calories, and myriad health benefits (Godlewska et al, 2021 ). In Asia, it is one of the most economically important crops; it is cultivated for its soft leaves and root, which is consumed raw, dried, pickled, or simmered (Lee and Park, 2020 ). Radish has also been reported to reduce health risks associated with cancer, stone formation, constipation, jaundice, and anxiety (Godlewska et al, 2021 ).…”

An ever-increasing population has issued an open challenge to the agricultural sector to provide enough food in a sustainable manner. The upsurge in chemical fertilizers to enhance food production had resulted in environmental problems. The objective of the current study is to assess the utilization of biostimulants for sustainable agricultural production as an alternative to chemical fertilization. For this purpose, two pot experiments were conducted to examine the response of radish against individual and combined applications of biostimulants. In the first experiment, the effects of chemical fertilizer (CK), glycine (G), lysine (L), aspartic acid (A), and vitamin B complex (V) were studied. The results demonstrated that V significantly improved the transpiration rate (81.79%), stomatal conductance (179.17%), fresh weight (478.31%), and moisture content (2.50%). In the second experiment, tested treatments included chemical fertilizer (CK), Isabion® (I), glycine + lysine + aspartic acid (GLA), moringa leaf extract + GLA (M1), 25% NPK + M1 (M2). The doses of biostimulants were 5g L−1 glycine, 1g L−1 lysine, 2g L−1 aspartic acid, and 10 ml L−1 moringa leaf extract. The photosynthetic rate improved significantly with GLA (327.01%), M1 (219.60%), and M2 (22.16%), while the transpiration rate was enhanced with GLA (53.14%) and M2 (17.86%) compared to the Ck. In addition, M1 increased the stomatal conductance (54.84%), internal CO2 concentration (0.83%), plant fresh weight (201.81%), and dry weight (101.46%) as compared to CK. This study concludes that biostimulants can effectively contribute to the sustainable cultivation of radish with better growth and yield.

“…Many researchers studied that the effect of soil mulching on some vegetable crops and found the plant growth characteristics of plants, viz., stem diameter, plant height, leaf length, leaf dry weight, stem dry weight, and plant dry weight, affected by the mean soil temperature (Torres-Olivar et al, 2016;Sarkar et al, 2019;Amare and Desta, 2021). However, transparent and green soil mulches lead to an increase in the growth and development of root traits, and leaf weight in radish plants compared to those without mulch (Lee and Park, 2020). The lettuce plants' traits, i.e., number, length, and width of leaves, were highest when using black polyethylene, followed by white, blue, silver, and olive film (Shah et al, 2018).…”

The experiment was conducted on a private farm in Sharm El Sheikh City, South Sinai Governorate, Egypt during the summer seasons of 2020 and 2021 to examine the effects of four different colors of shade nets (green, blue, grey, and black shading net) and four soil mulch materials (organic mulch and both black and silver plastic mulches, as well as without soil mulch) on shielding cucumber plants from high temperatures, improving microclimate as well as growth, quality, and fruit yield. The results demonstrated that the use of colored shade nets altered the microclimate around cucumber plants, resulting in a drop in average monthly both air temperature and light intensity as well as an increase in air relative humidity when compared to un-shaded treatment. Furthermore, the temperature of the soil was higher without mulch than it was with mulch. The findings showed that cucumber plants covered in green nets combined with organic soil mulch had the highest values of vegetative development features, such as root length, plant height, number of leaves, and both fresh and dry weight of plants, followed by black shade nets with organic soil mulch. Also, the outcomes revealed the highest values of yield per fed. were attained by green shade nets and/or black nets interacting with soil organic and/or black soil mulch. The results analysis indicate that P-fruit content created the most significant effect from the combination of grey shade nets with organic soil mulch. In terms of N-fruit content, cucumbers covered by green shade nets with organic soil mulch or/and black soil mulch had the greatest values.
