Sustainable agricultural practices and soil biological diversity

Soil condition is a key factor in sustainable agriculture, as the efficiency of crop production is closely linked to soil biodiversity. Modern molecular biology methods have highlighted the crucial role of soil microorganisms in nutrient cycling, plant development, and stress tolerance. The composition of microbial communities significantly influences both crop yield and quality. Our research aims to prevent and restore soil life degradation using next-generation molecular technologies. By assessing the biological status of soils and identifying key microbial players in essential ecological processes, we can support more efficient and resilient organic crop and fruit production. We analyze the relative abundance of bacterial (16S rRNA) and fungal (ITS) communities, mapping the soil biome diversity of the sampled areas. Special focus is placed on microorganisms involved in nutrient utilization. Our findings contribute to the development of resilient and sustainable agricultural systems.
