Especially with fruits close to the ground such as strawberries or zucchini, the straw prevents the fruits from having direct contact with the ground and therefore rotting more quickly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMoisture retention\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStraw acts as a mulch and helps retain soil moisture. It reduces water evaporation so the soil stays moist longer, which is particularly beneficial in hot summer months. This means less watering and more uniform growing conditions for your plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWeed suppression\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA layer of straw on the surface of the raised bed suppresses weed growth because light cannot reach the weed seeds. This reduces the need for weeding and gives your plants less competition for nutrients and water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSoil protection and temperature regulation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStraw protects the soil from erosion and extreme temperature fluctuations. It acts as an insulating layer, keeping the floor cool in summer and warm in winter. This creates a more stable microclimate for root growth and improves plant health.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eImprovement of soil structure\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs it rots, straw helps improve soil structure. It adds organic matter that increases the humus content of the soil, which improves soil fertility and water-holding ability. It also promotes the activity of soil organisms, which are essential for healthy soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBenefits of organic straw for animals\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIdeal for chickens and other farm animals\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChickens and other farm animals also benefit from organic straw. It offers a comfortable and hygienic bedding that absorbs moisture well and minimizes odors. Chickens like to scratch and peck in the straw, which is their natural behavior and therefore ensures their well-being.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eConclusion\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverall, straw is an excellent choice for garden and pet supplies. It improves the growing conditions for various fruit and vegetable crops while providing a healthy and comfortable environment for farm animals. The natural herbs in the straw also contribute to health and well-being.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BioGreen","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":45498320617737,"sku":"BS-D","price":14.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/4222\/2089\/files\/Strohballen-Produktbilder.jpg?v=1753207067","url":"https:\/\/biogreen.world\/en\/products\/straw-bales-approx-7-kg-wheat-straw-in-a-box","provider":"BioGreen GmbH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
