Soil, often considered the foundation of life on Earth, is a complex and living ecosystem that supports plant growth and, by extension, human existence. Essential nutrients present in the soil are divided into two categories: macronutrients and micronutrients. While plants require macronutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium in large quantities, micronutrients are needed in…
