Abstract

Microorganisms play a vital role in sustainable agriculture by contributing to soil health, nutrient cycling, disease suppression, and plant growth promotion. The utilization of beneficial microorganisms, such as plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria, mycorrhizal fungi, and biocontrol agents, offers sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives to conventional agricultural practices. These microorganisms enhance nutrient availability, stimulate plant growth, and protect crops from pests and diseases, reducing the dependence on synthetic fertilizers and pesticides. Moreover, their interactions with plants and the soil microbiome contribute to improved soil structure, nutrient retention, water infiltration, and carbon sequestration. The integration of microbial inoculants, biofertilizers, and biopesticides into agricultural practices can lead to enhanced crop productivity, reduced environmental impacts, and increased resilience to climate change.
