1. Product Overview

Orchard weed control fabric is a high-quality geotextile material made from polypropylene or polyester, engineered to prevent weed growth while allowing water, air, and nutrients to pass through to the soil. Designed for agricultural use, this fabric reduces maintenance efforts, conserves soil moisture, and enhances the efficiency of fruit tree cultivation. It is widely used in orchards, vineyards, and other fruit farming operations.
