Soil Health and Quality in Sustainable Agriculture
Summary
This paper is not about microplastics; it is a broad review of soil health and quality principles in sustainable agriculture.
In agricultural production activities, soil is the most basic production tool and the common value of all living things on our planet with its numerous functions in the ecosystem. Conventional agriculture techniques and monocultures which are applied with rapid population growth throughout the world, increase the pressure on agricultural lands even more, causing regression in their functions and loss of productivity and inequality in access to food in societies. In order to achieve the targeted production in sustainable agriculture, the protection of soil quality and health is accepted as the basic requirement. In sustainable agricultural practices, it is necessary to use the soil at a level to meet the basic needs of people, and to consider the environmental values and to apply the agricultural practices also including alternative agricultural techniques at an optimum level to protect the soil quality. It is considered that the sustainable use of soils depends on the effective use of analysis

Impact of the sustainable agricultural practices for governing soil health from the perspective of a rising agri-based circular bioeconomy
This review examines sustainable farming practices for maintaining soil health and supporting a circular bioeconomy, focusing on preserving soil organic matter as the foundation of productive agriculture. Depleted soils are a growing global concern as population expansion demands more food production. While not directly about microplastics, healthy soil management is relevant because degraded soils are more vulnerable to microplastic accumulation and contamination.
Microplastics in Agriculture- a Review
This review examines the growing presence of microplastics in agricultural environments, covering their sources from plastic mulch films and irrigation water, their effects on soil health and crop quality, and the implications for food safety and sustainable agriculture.
Research on Soil Management and Conservation
Not relevant to microplastics — this is a brief editorial introduction to a journal special issue on soil management and conservation, with no substantive content about microplastic pollution.
How microplastics are destroying soil and human health
This review examined how microplastics harm soil health — disrupting soil structure, water retention, microbial communities, and nutrient cycling — and how soil degradation translates into risks for human health through food and water contamination. It argues that soil microplastic pollution deserves equivalent attention to aquatic contamination.
Beneficial Functions of Soil Microbiome for Sustainable Agriculture
This paper is not about microplastics; it reviews the beneficial roles of soil microbiomes in sustainable agriculture, covering plant-bacteria interactions and microbiome management strategies for crop production.
