ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A process for manufacturing a mulch material used to encourage plant growth, said process comprising breaking down mechanically vegetable fibers having a high cellulose content by grinding, crushing and/or swelling until the cell structure of said vegetable fibers is opened, separating fibers having a length from 10 to 25 mm, and drying the separated fibers at a temperature below about 40°C to a final moisture content of about 13%. The inventive mulch material may be used in seed slurries sprayed onto barren growing surfaces and owing to its purely biological composition it is a good nutrient medium for micro-organisms, thus creating optimal conditions for new plant growth whilst aerating the soil and creating a moisture reservoir on the surface of the soil.
