Organic fertilizers are naturally derived soil amendments—such as manure, compost, and biosolids—that supply nutrients to support plant growth without synthetic processing. In plant science, they are studied for their gradual nutrient release, ability to improve soil structure and microbial activity, and role in sustainable cultivation practices. Research into organic fertilization helps scientists understand nutrient uptake efficiency, soil-plant interactions, and long-term impacts on crop yield and quality.
