1. An agricultural film comprising: at least one copolyamide prepared by polymerizing the following components:
(A) 60% to 80% by weight of at least one lactam, and
(B) 20% to 40% by weight of a monomer mixture (M) comprising the following components:
(B1) at least one C32-C40 dimer acid, and
(B2) at least one C4-C12 diamine,
wherein:
percentages by weight of components (A) and (B) are each based on the sum total of the percentages by weight of components (A) and (B); and
the copolyamide has a viscosity number of from 212 to 280 ml/g, determined in a 0.5% by weight solution of the copolyamide in a mixture of phenol/o-dichlorobenzene in a weight ratio of 1:1.
