description Natural coconut coir fibers are used to make the eco-friendly and traditional Indian textile known as open weave coir bhoovastra. "Bhoovastra" means "earth cloth" in Sanskrit, and India's agricultural and cultural legacy are closely linked to this distinctive fabric. It is made by weaving coir fibers into a pattern resembling a lattice or open mesh, which produces a material that is breathable and lightweight and suitable for a variety of uses. Especially in dry or erosion-prone areas, one of the main applications of open weave coir bhoovastra is as a protective covering for soil. It helps to retain moisture, lessen soil erosion, and stimulate plant development when it is placed on top of the soil, acting as a barrier against wind and water erosion. It may also be used as a mulch to control soil temperature naturally and prevent weed development.
