Agro-textile is a woven, knitted, or non-woven technical textile widely used to regulate the environment for plants and animals in applications related to agriculture, forestry, horticulture, and other domains. Some applications of agro-textiles include sunscreens, bird protection net, plant net, ground cover, windshield, root ball nets, insect meshes, turf protection net, monofil nets, tape nets, cherry covers, nets for covering pallets, and packing materials for agricultural products.

Agro-textiles account for around 1.5 percent of India's total technical textile production. Agro-textiles aid in maintaining adequate soft humidity and raising soil temperature. Agricultural fabrics are typically produced in unique designs. Shade nets, mulch mats, crop covers, anti-hail nets, bird protection nets, and fishing nets are some of the most common agro-textiles. Agro-textiles (a fast-growing area of technical textiles), are enhancing the sector's profitability by improving productivity and lowering the demand for chemicals by leveraging the potential of technical textiles. Due to specific advantages, man-made fibres are favoured for agricultural textiles over natural fibres. Crops and other foodstuffs benefit from the physical qualities of agro-textiles, which aid in crop-growth and harvesting. These properties include resistance to weather, micro-organisms, solar radiation, UV radiation, bio-degradability, potential to retain water, tensile strength, and offering protection from wind. Manufactured agro-textiles may be woven, knitted, or non-woven. Nylon, polyester, polyethylene, polyolefin, polypropylene, jute, wool, coir, sisal, flax, and hemp are commonly used fibres in the production of agro-textiles.

With a wide variety of agro-textile products available, selection of one would depend on the kind of protection a particular crop requires. Geographical location significantly influences selection of an agro-textile. Some regions might require protection from excessive heat or sunlight, while others might warrant shielding from cold. However, use of an appropriate, high-quality agro-textile is likely to enhance yield quality.

Modern textile materials, however, are opening new avenues and applications. For example, Lightweight spun bonded fleeces are employed for purposes such as shading, thermal insulation, and weed suppression. For wind and hail protection, heavier non-woven, knitted, and woven structures are used. For wrapping new circular bales, fibrillated and extruded nets are replacing traditional baler twine. In horticulture, capillary non-woven matting is used to provide moisture to growing plants. Seeds, as well as any essential nutrients and insecticides, can be integrated into such matting without the need of chemicals. Instead of jute, paper, or plastic sacks, woven polypropylene FIBCs (flexible intermediate bulk containers - large bags) are increasingly being used for bulk storage and transportation of fertilisers and agricultural supplies. Modern textile materials and constructions have helped conventional products gain strength, lightness, and longevity, as well as open up entirely new markets.
