Plastics are manmade long chain polymeric molecules which are resistant against microbial attack and become part of parcel of today life. It turns out to be imperative component in agriculture as different plastics are used for various purposes namely plasticulture, polyhouses, mulches, packaging container, shrink film wrappers, etc. Plastics have replaced paper and cellulose-based products for packaging because of their strength, lightness, resistance to water and most water borne…
