La solarisation du sol est une méthode non pesticide pour lutter contre les parasites du sol en plaçant des feuilles de plastique sur un sol humide pendant les périodes de température ambiante élevée. Les feuilles de plastique permettent à l'énergie rayonnante du soleil d'être emprisonnée dans le sol, ce qui réchauffe les niveaux supérieurs.
