Sustainable Plant Production from the Soils Degraded with Microplastics
Summary
Researchers reviewed how microplastic contamination in agricultural soils disrupts plant growth, alters soil properties, and moves through the soil-plant interface, while exploring remediation strategies for sustainable crop production. Microplastics in farmland soil threaten food security and create a direct pathway for plastic particles to enter the human food supply through crops.
The contamination of soil with microplastics (MPS) has been recognized as the most emerging threat to the soil environment and is a worldwide concern. Yet, the interaction of MPS at soil plant interface, their phytotoxic impacts, and mechanisms associated with their...
