“…In particular, the higher leaf chlorophyll content in WSB co‐compost may be an indicator of greater nutrient uptake, as revealed in the yield for 100% ET c . These observations demonstrate plant natural resiliency to adverse conditions but do convey a yield tradeoff (Dutta et al., 2020; Husen, 2021). Here the positive effects from organic treatments as reflected in higher leaf chlorophyll content and greater soil nutrient retention potential may be overshadowed by plant physiological response to water stress.…”

Finding feasible solutions for sustainable food production is challenging. Here we try to understand the balance between crop productivity and ecological stewardship using agroecological‐based soil management strategies. We evaluated the potential of different organic materials such as dairy manure compost and different biochar manure co‐composts, derived locally from agricultural wastes, to enhance soil ecosystem services. We assessed their potential impact on soil moisture and nutrient retention, greenhouse gas emissions, and crop productivity using data collected from an outdoor tomato column study. Results from the experiment showed potential of biochar co‐composts to positively affect soil health by lessening loss of essential nutrients such as NO3−‐N and NH4+‐N, sustained tomato yield, and uphold crop water use efficiency. However, yield response to soil organic amendment is constrained by external factors such as irrigation strategies, with treatments under deficit irrigation greatly impacted. Overall, we observed a positive effect of adding biochar manure co‐composts to soil, although best management practices are needed to optimize crop productivity and avoid unintentional consequences.

Salinity stress ranks among the most prevalent stress globally, contributing to soil deterioration. Its negative impacts on crop productivity stem from mechanisms such as osmotic stress, ion toxicity, and oxidative stress, all of which impede plant growth and yield. The effect of cobalt with proline on mitigating salinity impact in radish plants is still unclear. That’s why the current study was conducted with aim to explore the impact of different levels of Co and proline on radish cultivated in salt affected soils. There were four levels of cobalt, i.e., (0, 10, 15 and 20 mg/L) applied as CoSO4 and two levels of proline (0 and 0.25 mM), which were applied as foliar. The treatments were applied in a complete randomized design (CRD) with three replications. Results showed that 20 CoSO4 with proline showed improvement in shoot length (∼ 20%), root length (∼ 23%), plant dry weight (∼ 19%), and plant fresh weight (∼ 41%) compared to control. The significant increase in chlorophyll, physiological and biochemical attributes of radish plants compared to the control confirms the efficacy of 20 CoSO4 in conjunction with 10 mg/L proline for mitigating salinity stress. In conclusion, application of cobalt with proline can help to alleviate salinity stress in radish plants. However, multiple location experiments with various levels of cobalt and proline still needs in-depth investigations to validate the current findings.

“…These pollutants enter the environment from different sources, significantly impacting plants and animals [1]. As a result of this environmental pollution, the chemical composition of the environment has been changed due to the increasing amount of toxic pollutants, which pose a significant threat to biodiversity [2]. PM adversely affects humans and plants and causes 3.3 million deaths yearly, especially in Asia [3].…”

Air pollution is a severe problem in the modern world. Urbanization, industrialization, and traffic emit air pollutants such as carbon monoxide (CO), nitrous oxides (NOx), hydrocarbons (HCs), and particulate matter into the environment. Plants can absorb air pollutants through stomata. They adversely affect the various metabolic and physiological processes of plant species. This review describes the impact of air pollution on plant health, morphologically, physiologically, and genetically, and the tolerance ability of plants located along roadside areas. Many morphological effects, like chlorosis, necrosis, leaf area, stomatal clogging, plant productivity, leaf falling, and reduction in flower yield, are observed due to the influence of air pollution. Air pollutants also damage the DNA and affect the biochemicals of the plants, as well as pH, relative water content (RWC), simple sugar, ascorbic acid (AA), total chlorophyll content (TCH), proline, and polyamines. Some plants located under pollution stress can mitigate air pollution. Plants with higher APTI values are more tolerant of air pollution, while those with the lowest APTI values can be used as an indicator of the rate of air pollution. There is much morphological, biochemical, and DNA damage noted in this review. Different strategies can be used to diagnose the effects of air pollution in the future and develop green belts to mitigate air pollution in pollution-stressed areas.
