Recycling agricultural residues into organic formulations offers a sustainable strategy to reduce reliance on limited farmyard manure (FYM) resources and improve soil and crop performance. Anchored in the principles of sustainable nutrient recycling and agroecological intensification, present study evaluated effects of organic formulations prepared from agro-waste such as paddy husk ash (PHA) and potato peel compost (PPC) on crop growth, productivity, and soil health in triple crop rotation system. A two-year field experiment (2020–22) was executed at ICAR-IARI, New Delhi, using a randomized block design with seven nutrient management treatments. Crop growth, yields, soil health indicators, soil physical, chemical and biological properties were assessed. Among treatments, T4 (applied with 100% Recommended dose of nitrogen (RDN) through a PHA-based formulation) consistently achieved the highest yields: baby corn (7.42–7.53 t ha-1), kabuli gram (2.16–2.21 t ha-1), and cowpea (6.83–6.95 t ha-1), followed by T6 (100% RDN via a potato peel compost (PPC)-based formulation) and T2 (100% RDN through FYM). Soil under T4 showed substantial improvements in NH4+-N (11.3–13.3 mg kg-1) and NO3--N (20.6–21.9 mg kg-1), representing 68–91% and 111–144% increases over the control. Enzymatic activities, including dehydrogenase (39–41%) and alkaline phosphatase (33–37%), were also significantly enhanced. Additionally, microbial populations and microbial biomass carbon (239 mg kg-1) increased by 20–36% and 25%, respectively, compared with the control (T1). PHA- and PPC-based formulations demonstrated strong potential as effective substitutes for FYM alone, improving crop growth, yields, and enhancing soil health. Their use can promote sustainable nutrient recycling and soil health in regions with limited availability of conventional organic inputs.
Editorial: Impact of soil health on nutritional quality of crops and human health
Tarun Belwal, Durgesh K. Jaiswal, Sapna Langyan
Frontiers in Nutrition, 2026
This Research Topic, Impact of Soil Health on Nutritional Quality of Crops and Human Health, was developed to explore the interconnected relationships between soil properties, crop nutritional quality, and human health outcomes. The collection brings together original research and review articles that examine how soil management practices, such as balanced nutrient inputs, organic amendments, microbial interventions, and climate-adaptive strategies, can enhance soil functionality and crop nutritional profiles. The studies brought together in this Special Issue collectively tell this deeper story, one in which soil health emerges as a central protagonist in the global quest for food quality, nutritional security, and human well-being.The story begins in the highly weathered soils of Sub-Saharan Africa, where sulphur, often overlooked in fertilizer regimes, quietly governs both soil fertility and the nutritional value of staple crops. Moshi et al. synthesize decades of evidence to show that sulphur deficiency is not merely a soil constraint but a nutritional bottleneck, linking soil degradation directly to hidden hunger. Their work reminds us that restoring balance to soil nutrients can simultaneously rehabilitate soils and improve the quality of diets in regions where resources are limited but needs are immense.From nutrient-depleted soils, the narrative moves to climates in flux. In tropical Colombia, Beltran-Medina et al. reveal how soil properties interact with climate variability, particularly ENSO-driven fluctuations, to regulate crop evapotranspiration and productivity in basil. Here, soil is not a passive medium but an active moderator of climate stress, influencing how plants access and use water. This study underscores a critical lesson for a warming world: sustainable crop quality will depend on adaptive soil and water management strategies that acknowledge the inseparable link between climate and edaphic conditions.As productivity and climate resilience are considered, the story turns to food safety, an equally vital but often underappreciated dimension of soil health. Koley et al. explore how microbially mediated silicon-based agro-wastes can reduce arsenic bioaccumulation in crops. Their work highlights the power of soil microbial processes and targeted amendments to interrupt the transfer of toxic elements from soil to plant to plate. In doing so, it reframes soil management as a frontline defense for public health, not merely an agronomic intervention.Measuring and safeguarding crop quality, however, requires tools that can keep pace with the complexity of soil-plant interactions. Sharma et al. introduce near-infrared spectroscopy as a high-throughput, non-destructive approach for assessing key nutritional traits in oilseed Brassica species. Their study bridges the gap between soil management and food composition, enabling rapid evaluation of nutritional outcomes that were once costly and time-consuming to measure. This technological advance strengthens our ability to translate soil health into tangible improvements in food quality.The narrative deepens further into the living soil, where biological diversity shapes plant health in profound ways. Lakshmi et al. demonstrate how Trichoderma species suppress Ganodermainduced basal stem rot in oil palm, offering mechanistic insights into microbial-based disease control. Their findings reinforce the idea that resilient soils, rich in beneficial microbes, can protect crops naturally, reducing dependence on chemical inputs while sustaining long-term productivity.The story comes full circle with Chandel et al., who disentangle the role of native soil microbes in enhancing both soil health parameters and the accumulation of nutritionally valuable phytochemicals in Aloe vera. This work vividly illustrates the soil-microbe-plant nexus, showing how invisible biological communities beneath our feet shape the nutritional and functional quality of crops consumed by humans.Together, the articles in this research topic demonstrate that soil health is not merely an agronomic concern but a key determinant of food quality, food safety, and human nutrition. By integrating perspectives from soil science, agronomy, microbiology, plant nutrition, and public health, this collection underscores the need for holistic, systems-based approaches to agricultural management. We hope this research topic will stimulate interdisciplinary research, inform sustainable land-use policies, and encourage the adoption of soil management practices that enhance crop nutritional quality and support human health.
Editorial: Soil biodiversity and regenerative agriculture: the path to achieve SDGs
Anukool Vaishnav, Durgesh Kumar Jaiswal, Jagajjit Sahu
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2026
The soil is an ever-changing biological ecosystem, harbour microorganisms that help in nutrient cycling, and are necessary for plant development, disease resistance, and carbon storage. The intensive farming practices of the past decades have completely disrupted these functions by applying large amounts of fertilizers and pesticides, and by carrying out the kind of practices that lower the amount of organic matter and biodiversity in the areas concerned (Pedrinho et al. 2024). Hence, restoring soil biological integrity is a must for regenerative agriculture (Schreefel et al. 2020).The compilation of this topic inmicrobes ande different ways in which microbes help to make nutrients available and to tolerate stress, look into the effects of different biofertilizers and microbial consortia developed for particular crops, and use omics technologies for revealing the interactions between plants and microbes, and contemplate how these findings might be applied on a large scale in regenerative practices. All the studies together suggest crucial approaches that can use to meet up different SDGs: zero hunger (SDG 2), health and well-being (SDG 3), responsible consumption and production (SDG 12), climate change mitigation (SDG 13), and preserving terrestrial ecosystems (SDG 15).This collection comprises six original research articles that each address different facets of soil biodiversity in agricultural contexts. Below, we discuss key contributions and their broader implications.Mitigating salinity in mustard via Bacillus flexusThe research by Singh and Prasad (2025) elaborates the usage of Bacillus flexus, a salt-tolerant PGPR, in improving mustard (Brassica juncea) growth under salt stress. The inoculation with B.flexus resulted in enhance plant development in terms of germination, biomass, leaf area, chlorophyll content, and enzyme activities. Moreover, the bacterial inoculation also showed a reduction in oxidative stress, electrolyte leakage and malondialdehyde levels. Thus, these results are pointed at the deployment of stress-tolerant microbial formulations to restore saline soils and increase plant productivity.The study by Jabborova et al. ( 2025) focused on how different soil amendments such as biochar, hydrogel, and biofertilizer affect alfalfa in the salinity-prone areas of the Aral Sea. Three-fold of plant biomass was increased with biochar and biofertilizer application, with biochar being particularly effective in chlorophyll content. Furthermore, the amendments were beneficial in terms of soil quality also, enriched soil nitrogen and phosphorus content. This finding demonstrates the effectiveness of the organic carbon and microbial input strategy that could lead to abiotic stress resilience, a defining characteristic of regenerative agriculture. This research topic exemplify the variability of soil microbial communities in their different roles in regenerative agriculture. Firstly, microbial behavior depends on the location, the carbon content into the soil, the type of crop planted, and the stress conditions in the vicinity. The proper management of these factors can promote beneficial plant-microbe interaction for both agricultural productivity and ecosystem functioning. Secondly, microbe-based approaches benefit in chasing SDGs of multiple areas like lower disease incidence, enhance yield even under unfavorable conditions, and increase the quality of food. Thirdly, the development of highthroughput sequencing can relate microbial community profiles to functional outcomes leading to more precise and effective interventions.
Harnessing secondary metabolites of endophytic microbes: a next-generation biopesticide for crop disease management
Gulafsha Parveen, Waquar Akhter Ansari, Navin Kumar, Durgesh Kumar Jaiswal
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2026
This review highlights the potential of endophytic microorganisms and their secondary metabolites as innovative biopesticides for sustainable disease management in agriculture. Agriculture faces substantial challenges from phytopathogens, resulting in significant economic losses worldwide, which are typically addressed with synthetic pesticides that pose environmental and health hazards. Endophytic microorganisms residing within plant tissues without inducing disease provide a natural defence alternative by synthesising a variety of beneficial secondary metabolites, including alkaloids, terpenoids, phenolics, and peptides. These chemicals serve as ecological mediators, directly inhibiting pathogens, promoting plant systemic resistance, and improving nutrient absorption and stress resilience. The review elucidates the biosynthesis routes of these metabolites, their ecological functions, and the symbiotic chemical interactions between endophytes and host plants that enhance plant growth and defence. Bacterial endophytes, including Bacillus and Pseudomonas , generate lipopeptides that compromise pathogen membranes and to improve plant immunity, whereas fungal endophytes, such as Trichoderma and Penicillium , produce antifungal and insecticidal agents. The manuscript additionally examines the molecular mechanisms that govern these relationships, encompassing phytohormonal signalling and quorum sensing. While the potential of endophytic microorganisms as biopesticides is promising, significant gaps remain in our understanding of their long-term ecosystem effects, molecular mechanisms, and scalable manufacturing techniques. This review highlights the importance of comprehensive research to fully harness the biotechnological potential of endophytes. Integrating their secondary metabolites into crop protection strategies could reduce our reliance on chemical pesticides, promoting environmental sustainability and food security. Understanding the long-term ecosystem effects of endophytic microorganisms is crucial for bolstering resilient agricultural systems globally.
