Is the entire material biodegradable?  Or is it a mixture of minute pieces of plastic bound together by a biodegradable corn product, so the plastic stays in the soil?



Has not been tested yet to be used in this application so I can't really answer your question. Have used some photodegradable that only part of if degraded the first year but couldn't find any the next year.  It was a little harder to work with because it would tear when you were laying it.  I didn't like that product very well, the cross winds on it could tear holes in it laying in the field.
