Rapid population growth and increased use of agricultural technology have exacerbated agrarian problems. While mechanization has improved production, the heavy machinery for planting, irrigation, harvesting resulted in soil compaction. Soil compaction reduces pore space increases bulk density, which hinders plant growth. Globally, automated agriculture reduced crop production by more than 50%. In developing countries, grazing animals fields root penetration, nutrient absorption, water infiltration, increasing risk erosion runoff. The study investigates novel ways to reduce compaction, namely utilization nanoparticles (NPs) nanotechnology (NT). NPs unique qualities that can improve mechanical properties soil, increase its strength, minimize Some such as Carbon nanotubes, nanolites, nanosilica, nanoclay been demonstrated fertility, retention, structural stability. environmental pollutants while improving quality. However, questions about their long-term biodegradability, ecological toxicity, health effects require further investigation. also addressed how affect environment human health. Their small size raises concerns potential exposure toxicity individuals ecosystems. paper briefly discusses economic regulatory considerations related use, disposal NPs, emphasizing need comprehensive legislation, impact studies, stakeholder involvement decision-making. Although offer promise sustainable practices, research is necessary optimize ensure safety, well gain a better understanding interactions with physics.

This study investigated the effects of humic acid (HA), flue gas desulfurization gypsum (FG), and their combined application on soil chemical properties, rice yield, phosphorus use efficiency (PUE), agronomic (PAE) during production in acidic paddy soil, which has not been previously studied. A greenhouse experiment was conducted a completely randomized block design with four treatments, including control (no amendments), HA (975 kg ha−1), FG (636 plus FG. increased pH; cation exchange capacity (CEC); total concentrations P, Ca, S; exchangeable Ca S. Additionally, maximized P uptake, PUE, PAE. alone whereas coapplication organic carbon (TOC), CEC, available S, However, application, both HA, failed to increase PAE owing lower uptake by plants. Therefore, is sustainable management practice for soils, must be carefully considered, as it produces disappointing effects.

The salinity and alkalinity of soils are two fundamental factors that limit plant growth productivity. For reason, a field study conducted at Sakha Agric. Res. Station in Egypt during the 2022–2023 winter season aimed to assess impact gypsum (G), compost (C), zinc foliar application images, traditional (Z1 as ZnSO4) nanoform (Z2 N-ZnO), on alleviating saline–sodic conditions soil its wheat results showed combination gypsum, compost, N-ZnO spray (G + C Z2) decreased electrical conductivity (EC), sodium adsorption ratio (SAR), exchangeable percentage (ESP) by 14.81%, 40.60%, 35.10%, respectively. Additionally, compared control, G Z2 treatment improved nutrient content uptake well superior biomass parameters, such highest grain yield (7.07 Mg ha−1), height (98.0 cm), 1000-grain weight (57.03 g), straw (9.93 ha−1). Interestingly, was more effective than ZnSO4 promoting Principal component analysis highlighted negative correlation between increased EC SAR, whereas organic matter (OM), infiltration rate (IR), were found be positively correlated. Furthermore, employing k-nearest neighbors technique, it predicted would rise 7.25 t ha−1 under certain (5.54 dS m−1), ESP (10.02%), OM (1.41%), bulk density (1.30 g cm−3), (1.15 cm h−1), SAR (7.80%). These demonstrate how adding can improve quality, increase yield, uptake, all which support sustainable agriculture.

Soil salinity is a major global challenge, reducing fertility and crop productivity. This study evaluated the effects of various soil management practices on physical, chemical, microbial properties saline soils. Six treatments, combining loosening, ploughing, disking, gypsum amendment, were applied to solonetzic meadow with high sodium levels. penetration resistance was measured using Penetronik penetrometer, while chemical analyses included pH, total salt content, calcium carbonate (CaCO3), humus, exchangeable cations (Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+). Microbial composition determined through DNA extraction nanopore sequencing. The results showed that level A had lowest (333 ± 200 N/m2), indicating better conditions for plant growth. Gypsum loosening treatment significantly improved (141 N/m2, p < 0.001), amendment enhanced (p 0.05, 0.01, 0.001). application balanced parameters influenced communities. Reduced tillage favored functionally important genera but did not support fungal diversity > 0.05). These findings highlight effectiveness practices, like in mitigating stress fostering beneficial Combining these methods proved most effective enhancing health, offering insights sustainable environments.

Soil science plays an important role in advancing sustainable agriculture. Key topics this domain include soil biodiversity, management practices, climate change impacts on soils, and innovative remediation techniques. In article, biodiversity is emphasized as a significant factor influencing nutrient cycling ecosystem services. Preserving for maintaining fertility long-term agricultural sustainability. Proper practices like irrigation, crop rotation, organic matter can help soils retain structure, fertility, productivity over time. The of health, such increasing temperatures, altering precipitation patterns, more extreme weather, are also reviewed. Understanding these effects vital developing mitigation adaptation strategies. Promising techniques phytoremediation bioaugmentation utilize plants microorganisms to restore degraded soils. Nanotechnology advanced materials show promise efficiently removing contaminants. Collaboration knowledge sharing between scientists, farmers, policymakers, other stakeholders highlighted; working together disseminate innovations best address challenges ensure By fostering collaboration staying informed about emerging advances, the sustainability systems be supported. summary, article outlines key stresses their importance agriculture through discussions management, impacts, techniques, need collaborative efforts.
