An agricultural wrap includes a continuous planar main body formed of a flexible and permeable material, an amount of growing matter, and at least one irrigation tube. The body has first and second sides, first and second ends, an inner surface, an outer surface disposed against a base surface, and at least one aperture. With the growing matter disposed against the inner surface, the first and second sides are positioned around the growing matter to define a holding pocket. An irrigation tube being disposed against the main body and above the base surface leaks water that permeates through the main body and saturates the growing matter.

1. In an agricultural environment having a base surface, an agricultural wrap, comprising: a continuous planar main body formed of a flexible and permeable material, said body having first and second opposing sides with respective terminal edges, first and second ends, an inner surface, an outer surface disposed against the base surface, and at least one aperture;an amount of growing matter disposed against the inner surface, with at least a portion of said amount of growing matter being exposed via the at least one aperture; andat least one irrigation tube attached to one of the first and second sides, with the one of the first and second sides, including the respective terminal edge, wrapped around said at least one tube and said at least one tube having a volume of water therein and at least one hole;wherein the first and second sides, are positioned around said amount of growing matter, the first and second sides define, in conjunction with the first and second ends, a holding pocket, and the first and second sides encapsulate said amount of growing matter within the holding pocket, with said at least one irrigation tube being disposed, against the one of the first and second sides, and above said amount of growing matter, and said amount of growing matter includes at least a portion of the volume of water transferred from the at least one hole and through said main body. 2. The agricultural wrap of claim 1, wherein the at least one aperture is formed by cutting the material. 3. The agricultural wrap of claim 1, further comprising a second irrigation tube attached to the other of the first and second sides. 4. The agricultural wrap of claim 1, wherein one of the first and second sides overlap the other. 5. The agricultural wrap of claim 1, wherein the terminal edges define a gap therebetween. 6. The agricultural wrap of claim 1, wherein one or more of the terminal edges define the at least one aperture. 7. The agricultural wrap of claim 1, further comprising at least one stake disposed through the first and second opposing sides and said amount of growing matter to secure the first and second opposing sides in a static position. 8. The agricultural wrap of claim 7, wherein said at least one stake is further disposed through the base surface. 9. The agricultural wrap of claim 7, wherein the at least one stake includes a first leg attached to a second leg, with the first leg being disposed through the first side and the second leg being disposed through the second side. 10. The agricultural wrap of claim 1, wherein the at least one irrigation tube is attached to another irrigation tube via a clamp. 11. In an agricultural environment having a base surface, a method of forming an agricultural wrap, having a continuous planar main body, formed of a flexible and permeable material, and having first and second opposing sides with respective terminal edges, an inner surface, an outer surface, and at least one aperture that exposes at least a portion of an amount of growing matter, comprising steps of: disposing the main body against the base surface;placing an amount of growing matter against the inner surface;attaching, to one of the first and second sides, at least one irrigation tube having a volume of water retained within the at least one irrigation tube, with the one of the first and second sides, including the respective terminal edge, wrapped around the at least one tube; andpositioning the first and second sides around the amount of growing matter to define a holding pocket and to encapsulate the amount of growing matter within the holding pocket;wherein the at least one irrigation tube is disposed, against the one of the first and second sides, and above the amount of growing matter, and the amount of growing matter includes at least a portion of the volume of water. 12. The method of claim 11, further comprising: after said step of positioning, cutting the material to form the at least one aperture. 13. The method of claim 11, wherein the other of the first and second sides includes a second irrigation tube attached thereto. 14. The method of claim 11, wherein one of the first and second sides overlaps the other. 15. The method of claim 11, wherein the terminal edges define the at least one aperture therebetween. 16. The method of claim 11, further comprising: after said step of positioning, forcing at least one stake through the first and second opposing sides and the amount of growing matter to secure the first and second opposing sides in a static position. 17. The method of claim 16, wherein said step of forcing includes forcing the at least one stake through the base surface. 18. The method of claim 16, wherein the at least one stake includes a first leg attached to a second leg, and the method further comprises: after said step of positioning, forcing the first leg being through the first side and the second leg through the second side. 19. The method of claim 11, further comprising: fixing the at least one irrigation tube to another irrigation tube via a clamp.
