agricultural-pollution
Agricultural pollution encompasses the harmful byproducts of farming practices—including synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, heavy metals, and runoff—that contaminate soil, water, and air. For plant science, understanding these pollutants is critical because they can disrupt nutrient uptake, damage root systems, alter soil microbiomes, and impair photosynthesis and growth. Researchers study how plants respond, adapt, or accumulate these contaminants to develop more resilient crops and phytoremediation strategies that use plants to detoxify degraded environments.
