“…Soil organic matter depletion is one of main factors causing loss of ecosystem resilience and the degradation of ecosystem services as it is a good source of many essential plant nutrients (Kumar et al 2021) while enhancing soil fertility and agricultural sustainability (Maitra et al 2021). High biodiversity leads to increased carbon storage in roots and soil, and increased biomass yields will mitigate climate change (Yang et al 2018).…”

The deficiencies of micronutrients known as hidden hunger are severely affecting more than one-half of the world’s population, which is highly related to low bioavailability of micronutrients, poor quality diets, and consumption of cereal-based foods in developing countries. Although numerous experiments proved biofortification as a paramount approach for improving hidden hunger around the world, its effectiveness is highly related to various soil factors, climate conditions, and the adoption rates of biofortified crops. Furthermore, agronomic biofortification may result in the sedimentation of heavy metals in the soil that pose another detrimental effect on plants and human health. In response to these challenges, several studies suggested intercropping as one of the feasible, eco-friendly, low-cost, and short-term approaches for improving the nutritional quality and yield of crops sustainable way. Besides, it is the cornerstone of climate-smart agriculture and the holistic solution for the most vulnerable area to solve malnutrition that disturbs human healthy catastrophically. Nevertheless, there is meager information on mechanisms and processes related to soil-plant interspecific interactions that lead to an increment of nutrients bioavailability to tackle the crisis of micronutrient deficiency in a nature-based solution. In this regard, this review tempted to (1) explore mechanisms and processes that can favor the bioavailability of Zn, Fe, P, etc. in soil and edible parts of crops, (2) synthesize available information on the benefits and synergic role of the intercropping system in food and nutritional security, and (3) outline the bottlenecks influencing the effectiveness of biofortification for promoting sustainable agriculture in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Based on this review SSA countries are malnourished due to limited access to diverse diets, supplementation, and commercially fortified food; hence, I suggest integrated research by agronomists, plant nutritionists, and agroecologist to intensify and utilize intercropping systems as biofortification sustainably alleviating micronutrient deficiencies.

A field experiment was conducted on soil application of different levels of copper (0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0 kg Cu ha-1) and foliar application (0.25% CuSO4 at tillering stage, 0.25% CuSO4 at tillering and flowering stage, 0.5% CuSO4 at tillering stage and 0.5% CuSO4 at tillering and flowering stage) to test the response of rice plants grown in a copperresponsive in Typic Haplustalfs of Tamil Nadu. The treatment plots were replicated three times in a randomized block design. The growth attributes like plant height, tillering, and dry matter yield enhanced with increasing Cu levels and was maximum at 1.5 mg kg-1 Cu. The grain yield at 1.5 mg kg-1 Cu was enhanced by 62.9% from the control. The outcomes uncovered that the Cu concentrations in leaves, grain, and straw enhanced with increasing levels of Cu application. Application of low Copper application (0.5 to 1.5 kg Cu ha-1) significantly increased the macro (total N, P, K) and micro nutrient (Fe, Mn, Zn) content in leaves, grain, and straw of rice, however, higher concentrations (2.0 to 3.0 kg Cu ha-1) drastically reduced the nutrient content of rice.

“…Whereas parameters like plant height which was non-significant in 2013-14 but significant during 2014-15 & pooled basis, days to 50 percent flowering, chlorophyll intensity-I & chlorophyll intensity-II were significant in 2013-14 & pooled but non-significant in 2014-15 for number of effective tillers and spike length (cm) significant in 2014-15 & pooled but non-significant in 2013-14. Beneficial effect of doses of NPK application had been reported by Jani et al (2008) [5] , Tripathi et al (2013) [18] , Tyagi et al (2011) [21] , Tyagi and Mahapatra (2012) [23] , Kumar et al (2010) [8] and Malghani et al (2012) [26] : effect of NPK (Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potash) on the growth and yield of wheat cultivars Sahar-2006. Statistically, graded seed yield kg per plot showed similar performance in 1.25 x RDF and 1.5 x RDF along with leaf area index at the time of anthesis, number of effective tillers per plant, chlorophyll intensity (C.I.)…”
