Evaluation of Sprayable LAtex Mulches in Nursery Application

Abstract--The use of latex mulch has been increasing steadily for nursery operations each year. There are two brands of latex mulch and both seem to perform well. The material is currently used as an organic mulch replacement to stabilize the seedbed surface and edges. It protects the seed and seedbed from rain and wind erosion until germination is complete. Using proper equipment, the material is relatively easy to apply.
