Abstract: Provided is a light-shielding sheet comprising a light-shielding material made of a white film having a light transmission of not more than 50% and a reinforcement made of a textile fabric or a nonwoven fabric. Preferred is a case where the white film is a film having therein voids formed through stretching of the film or a film having therein bubbles formed through foaming by use of a foaming agent, whereby a light-shielding sheet is provided which has a light weight, a high strength and a superior durability and which inhibits temperature increase caused by the heat resulting from sunlight absorption. The light-shielding sheet is employed suitably as a light-shielding material for agricultural use and horticultural use.
