CHEMICAL FOUNDATIONS FOR IMPROVING SOIL FERTILITY
Keywords:
soil fertility, chemical composition, fertilizers, nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium, organic matter, sustainable agriculture.Abstract
This article analyzes the chemical basis for increasing soil fertility. The study studies the physicochemical properties of soil, the main elements in fertilizers (nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium), and their interaction. It also analyzes the impact of the complex application of organic and mineral fertilizers on soil structure, pH level, and microbiological activity. According to the results, balancing the chemical composition of the soil is an important factor in ensuring sustainable productivity. The article contains recommendations for scientifically based management of soil fertility, development of sustainable agricultural production, and ensuring environmental safety.
