Summary

Researchers reviewed how soil microbiomes interact with microplastics in agricultural settings, finding that microbial communities offer biodegradation and remediation potential, though intensive plastic use in farming combined with fertilizer and wastewater inputs continuously introduces microplastics into soils with implications for soil health.

Study Type Environmental

Microplastics (MPs) are now recognized as a pervasive and escalating threat to agricultural ecosystems. Intensive use of plastics in farming, combined with inputs such as organic fertilizers, sewage sludge, and wastewater, continuously introduces MPs into soils. Once...
