Abstract

The research presented in this review reveals that fertilizers, in addition to strengthening the agriculture sector, pollute soils and ground water. The essential elements found in fertilizers are necessary for improving soil quality and promoting healthy agricultural plant growth. Fertilizers are very important for agriculture, but they are also bad for the environment, people, and animals. They contain a variety of pollutants, such as radionuclides and heavy metals, in addition to mineral nutrients. In addition to inorganic fertilizers, organic fertilizers introduce organic contaminants, diseases, and potentially hazardous and toxic metals into soils and waterways. However, because they improve soil microbial variety, aeration, moisture content, nutrient status, and organic matter, organic fertilizers are better for soil health. Proper processing of organic fertilizers is necessary to remove unwanted metals, organic compounds, and pathogens before application to soil.
