Özet:

 As the global population grows, there is an increasing demand for food, requiring sustainable farming methods to increase agricultural productivity. Soil covers and mulches used in agriculture are mostly made of synthetic materials derived from petrochemicals, which pose various problems such as soil contamination and long-term insolubility. This study aims to use Ulva Lactuca algae as a sustainable raw material for soil covers, as it contains vitamins and minerals that the soil needs. As seawater acidity increases, the population of this algae is also increasing, creating the opportunity to use it in agriculture. The product is expected to retain moisture and reduce water consumption and high temperatures. In addition, hurds obtained from industrial hemp waste are used due to their high-water retention potential. The study combined Ulva lactuca algae from the Marmara region and hemp strings from Narlı and Vezir seeds to create various composites with different structures. Basic tests were conducted to determine the mechanical and physical properties of the products. The goal is to increase soil organic matter by using these materials as fertilizer after their use as soil covers.

 Küresel nüfus büyüdükçe, tarımsal verimliliği artırmak için sürdürülebilir tarım yöntemleri gerektiren gıdaya olan talep artmaktadır. Tarımda kullanılan toprak örtüleri ve malçlar çoğunlukla petrokimyasallardan elde edilen ve toprak kirliliği ve uzun süreli çözünmezlik gibi çeşitli sorunlar oluşturan sentetik malzemelerden yapılır. Bu çalışma, toprağın ihtiyaç duyduğu vitamin ve mineralleri içerdiği için Ulva Lactuca alglerinin toprak örtüleri için sürdürülebilir bir hammadde olarak kullanılmasını amaçlamaktadır. Deniz suyunun asitliği arttıkça bu alglerin popülasyonu da artarak tarımda kullanma fırsatı yaratmaktadır. Ürünün nemi tutması, su tüketimini ve yüksek sıcaklıkları azaltması beklenir. Ayrıca endüstriyel kenevir atıklarından elde edilen hurdalar, yüksek su tutma potansiyelleri nedeniyle kullanılmaktadır. Çalışma, Marmara bölgesinden Ulva lactuca algleri ile Narlı ve Vezir tohumlarından elde edilen kenevir tellerini birleştirerek farklı yapılara sahip çeşitli kompozitler oluşturdu. Ürünlerin mekanik ve fiziksel özelliklerini belirlemek için temel testler yapıldı. Amaç, toprak örtüsü olarak kullanıldıktan sonra bu malzemeleri gübre olarak kullanarak toprak organik maddesini arttırmaktır.
