Microbial fertilizers are a sustainable alternative to synthetic fertilizers, utilizing beneficial microorganisms to enhance soil health and promote plant growth. These fertilizers contain bacteria, fungi, or other microbes that help break down organic matter, fix nitrogen, and improve nutrient absorption by plants. By increasing soil fertility naturally, microbial fertilizers reduce the need for harmful chemical inputs that can degrade soil and water quality. Additionally, these natural fertilizers can improve plant resistance to diseases and environmental stress, leading to healthier crops and better yields. As concerns over the environmental impact of traditional fertilizers grow, microbial fertilizers offer a promising solution for sustainable and eco-friendly farming practices.
