Soil fertility is a key factor in sustainable agriculture and ecosystem health, as it determines the soil’s ability to supply essential nutrients, water, and support for plant growth.

It also supports essential soil functions such as nitrogen fixation and residue breakdown, which are vital for long-term productivity and environmental sustainability.
