Climate change is forcing the search for innovative solutions to effectively reduce its harmful effects on food production. In addition, increasingly stringent regulations are being introduced in European Union (the Green Deal), mandating reductions mineral fertilizer doses, which can crop yields. One technology could be soil fertilization and foliar application of Si-based fertilizers. A two-year field experiment (2023 2024), commercial conditions Kraski (52°2′42″ N, 18°54′6″ E), Central Poland, studied effect differentiated products yield quality maize grain at two levels nitrogen/phosphorus/potassium (NPK) (100% 50%). The SiGS® (Si—200 g kg−1, Ca—181 Mg—46 Mn—45 kg−1) was applied doses 100, 300, 500 kg ha−1, alone or with Barrier Si-Ca® (Si—336 dm−3; Ca—207 dm−3) (1 dm3 ha−1). number combinations assessed 16. were compared against control treatment. evaluated plant physiological parameters, dry matter yield, moisture content (protein, fat, starch content), components. highest yields obtained a dose ha−1 (giving an increase 17.5%), 300 plus (+16.4%), (+17.8%). treatments half-rate NPK similar magnitude (on average, +11.9%) full rate (+12.6%) treatments. Doubling contributed 7.8%. had significant beneficial protein fat grain, while it reduced content.

Biogeochemical cycles are fundamental to the functioning of plant–soil systems, driving availability and transfer essential nutrients (like carbon (C), nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), sulfur (S)) as well beneficial elements silicon (Si)). These interconnected regulate ecosystem productivity, biodiversity, resilience, forming basis critical services. This review explores mechanisms dynamics biogeochemical C, N, P, S, Si cycles, emphasizing their roles in nutrient/element cycling, plant growth, soil health, especially agricultural systems. The coupling between these facilitated mainly by microbial communities, highlights complexity interactions corresponding implications for stability. Human activities including industrial agriculture, deforestation, pollution disrupt underlying natural processes leading imbalances, degradation, susceptibility climate impacts. Technological advancements such artificial intelligence, remote sensing, real-time monitoring offer innovative solutions studying managing cycles. tools enable precise management, identification vulnerabilities, development sustainable practices. Despite significant progress, research gaps remain, particularly understanding interlinkages responses global change. underscores need integrated approaches that combine interdisciplinary research, technological innovation, land-use strategies mitigate human-induced disruptions enhance resilience. By addressing challenges, services can be safeguarded, ensuring sustainability systems face environmental
