Biodegradable Mulch Films Market Growth & Trends:

The global biodegradable mulch films market size is estimated to reach USD 82.82 billion by 2030, registering to grow at a CAGR of 8.9% from 2025 to 2030 according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. An increase in the adoption of greenhouse applications and a rise in environmental concerns toward synthetic counterparts are anticipated to drive the market demand over the forecast period.

Growing population along with declining agricultural land attributed to industrialization and urbanization have forced farmers to improve productivity in the existing land holding. Enhanced crop output by restraining weed growth, lowering environmental impact, and maintaining the temperature and moisture level of soil, are the advantages offered by these films, which are anticipated to drive the market demand for biodegradable mulch films.

Government regulations concerning environment-friendly products, in North America and Europe, are expected to impact market growth positively over the foreseeable future. The rise in concerns about plastic mulch leftovers in the soil is anticipated to boost product penetration in the coming years. Biodegradable mulch films offer benefits to plastic compost, and eradicate the requirement for disposal & removal, and alleviate the negative impact on the environment.

Mulch films that are currently available in the market are not entirely bio-based and contain over 10% synthetic ingredients. In addition, concerns regarding biodegradable mulches that do not achieve 90% biodegradation within two years of tillage into the soil, are anticipated to hamper the market growth in the near future. Due to the above-mentioned factors, the available biodegradable mulch films are not accepted in certified organic systems in the U.S.

Regulations regarding the use of biodegradable mulch films are being followed in regions such as Europe, North America, and Asia, thus supporting the growth of the mulch films market. The development of biodegradable and bio-based polymer films is anticipated to create opportunities for market participants in the coming years.

Biodegradable Mulch Films Market Report Highlights:

  • Thermoplastic starch (TPS) dominated the global market, with more than 61.25% of the share in 2024. TPS degrades into harmless products when placed in soil.
  • Fruits & vegetables were the major crop type segment and accounted for more than 50.16% of the global biodegradable mulch film demand in 2024. This segment is anticipated to witness the fastest growth in revenue from 2025 to 2030.
  • Asia Pacific dominated the global biodegradable mulch film polymers market and accounted for the largest revenue share of 62.36% in 2024.
