Agriculture faces the increasing demands of a growing global population amid simultaneous challenges to soils from climate change and human-induced contamination. Cover plants are vital in sustainable agriculture, contributing soil health improvement, erosion prevention, enhanced resilience, but their role contaminant management is underexplored. Herein we review utilization cover for remediating contaminants such as metals, organic pollutants, nitrate, antibiotics, antimicrobial resistance genes, plastics, salts. We explore phytoremediation strategies - including phytoextraction, phytodegradation, phytostabilization plant management. highlight selecting effective need biomass removal non-biodegradable contaminants, advocate incorporating concepts into agricultural practices beyond nutrient cycling resilience.

Abstract Background and Aims: This study examines the impact of soil biological parameters on agricultural productivity sustainability across Nigeria's diverse climates. Materials Methods: A multistage sampling method was adopted to collect 108 samples from four southern northern Nigeria locations, three communities, farmers' fields replicated times in a Complete Randomized Block Design (RCBD). Each sample analyzed for initial physicochemical some selected microbial properties. Results: In humid regions, activity high Location 1 (L1), with bacterial densities reaching 12.31 x 107 CFU/ml associated fungal yeast at 1.55 106 SFU/ml 5.08 counts, respectively. indicates bacterial-dominated ecosystem favourable rapid nutrient cycling, although it may risk structure over long term if unmanaged. Conversely, 3 (L3) drier areas showed less 9.83 but higher populations. suggests more environment that could enhance cycling structure, which is essential arid regions. The also investigated how environmental factors farming practices influence balances through hierarchical clustering analysis. Clusters like L3C1F2 L3C2F3 demonstrated balanced ecosystems substantial populations, supporting robust health. Conclusion: research highlights need precise, region-specific accommodate local profiles optimize crop yields sustain health, enhancing food security economic stability Nigeria.

Abstract This study thoroughly examined the effects of soil treatments on geotechnical properties and ginger rhizome oil quality. Ginger was cultivated in subjected to four different treatment plans: one with organic manure (ORG 1), another combination seaweed extract 2), a third NPK 15:15:15 fertilizer (CONV last blend 2). The rhizomes were harvested at peak maturity, their content chemically analyzed using standard procedures. Additionally, soil’s evaluated during experimental period. It observed that extracted from 1 ORG 2) had higher vitamin iodine levels but lower minerals, acid content, density, specific gravity, refractive index, peroxide values compared produced conventionally plants. Regarding microbial pollution samples, all samples 0 cfu/mL after incubation. results depict substantial relationship exists between Furthermore, indicate remediated better than inorganic treatments. Correlating crop performance is vital for identifying optimal conditions producing high-quality oils.

Soil micronutrients are vital for the enhancement of soil and crop productivity. Its deficiency can result in severe failure. Hence, exploring status under different land use types depths is crucial. This study investigated effects type depth on micronutrients, pH, organic carbon Buno Kebele southern Ethiopia. For this study, four replicate quadrat plots (100 m 2 ) were prepared each type. A total 24 samples taken using an auger from three (cultivated land, agroforestry grazing land) at two (0–20 20–40 cm). (Zn, Fe, Mn, Cu) measured diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid (DTPA) method. Moreover, two‐way analysis variance (ANOVA) SAS software (version 9.4) was used to analyze nutrients. The results revealed that Cu), (SOC) pH significantly affected by type, their interaction. Besides, had a negative relationship with whereas SOC positively correlated micronutrients. increased decreasing all types. In addition, higher than cultivated Therefore, agroforestry‐based agricultural practices provide invaluable evidence policymakers should be promoted implement effective nutrient management strategies realize sustainable productivity ensure food security.
