Abstract
Intensive agricultural practices to meet the current world food demand are the main cause of degradation of soil health and environmental pollution. In traditional agriculture, synthetic fertilizers are used which can impact soil health and result in environmental pollution. So, agricultural production in a sustainable way becomes a current issue. Different agricultural inputs may improve soil health with the reduction of environmental pollution. A wide range of agricultural inputs are available, among these organo-mineral fertilizer (OMF) may be a suitable input for sustainable agriculture. Organo-mineral fertilizers make the nutrient released slowly and homogeneously throughout the growing season resulting in higher nutrient use efficiency and yield. Also, the organic portion is carbon sequester and thus improves soil health, enhances crop productivity, and mitigates environmental pollution. The primary objective of this review is to provide a comprehensive scientific analysis of what is now known about the impact of applying OMF on soil characteristics, emissions of greenhouse gases, and their effect on crops. This review seeks to provide a solid scientific foundation for policy decisions, highlight knowledge gaps, and suggest additional research on the application of OMFs to soils.
期刊介绍:
The European Journal of Agronomy, the official journal of the European Society for Agronomy, publishes original research papers reporting experimental and theoretical contributions to field-based agronomy and crop science. The journal will consider research at the field level for agricultural, horticultural and tree crops, that uses comprehensive and explanatory approaches. The EJA covers the following topics:
crop physiology
crop production and management including irrigation, fertilization and soil management
agroclimatology and modelling
plant-soil relationships
crop quality and post-harvest physiology
farming and cropping systems
agroecosystems and the environment
crop-weed interactions and management
organic farming
horticultural crops
papers from the European Society for Agronomy bi-annual meetings
In determining the suitability of submitted articles for publication, particular scrutiny is placed on the degree of novelty and significance of the research and the extent to which it adds to existing knowledge in agronomy.
