Bio-Amendments for Soil
Bio-Amendments for Soil
Bio-amendments refer to the use of natural substances such as microorganisms, enzymes, and other organic materials to improve soil quality and enhance plant growth. These amendments help restore soil health by increasing microbial diversity, enhancing nutrient cycling, and improving soil structure. Bio-amendments like biochar, mycorrhizal fungi, and compost tea are commonly used to address soil deficiencies, suppress plant diseases, and improve water retention. By enhancing soil fertility naturally, bio-amendments contribute to sustainable farming practices, reducing the need for chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Their use fosters long-term soil health, boosting crop resilience and promoting more environmentally friendly agriculture.
