Strawberry growers & black plastic

I've often wondered when going past strawberry growers why they are
planted in rows & rows of black plastic. Why do they do this?
the berries mustn't touch the ground - they're called strawberries because
you would traditionally put down straw around them to keep the berries off
the ground! (or on modern farms, plastic, but plasticberries doesn't sound
very nice ;-)
