    mulch is mulch, possibly woodchippings where you'd sometimes call it Rindenmulch
    Einsatz means "the use of "

    so Mulcheinsatz would be the use of mulch.

    On the face of it I would agree. But, as with all translations, context is very important. I've just googled Mulcheinsatz and it could also be an accessory for a lawn mower/gardening tractor. If it is that it would be a mulching tool.

    If OP could let us know where they came across the term, we'd be able to say for sure.

    Yes, lawn mower was the context. A mulching tool it is. Should have guessed it. Thanks for the help.
