Biosphere 2.0 is a tool to get a glimpse into the intricate web of life that sustains our planet, and to investigate what is the impact of our practice on this complex environment. 🕵♂️ 👩💻
As we dig beneath the surface and unlock the secrets of this microbial realm, we gain a deeper understanding of what we can do to grow crops in a better and healthier way. 🌱
Within the array of techniques available for examining soil biological properties, enzyme activities stand out as potent indicators of soil health. 🌿
Enzymes serve as the silent architects of soil vitality! In fact, they play a pivotal role in mineralizing soil organic matter (SOM), facilitating nutrient recycling, carbon sequestration, waste management, and regulating trace gas emissions. 🔄 👨🌾
Additionally, their responsiveness to both management practices and environmental conditions enhances their utility in assessing soil health. 🌼
