| Summary: | Title screen The soil fertility largely depends of balance of crucial nutrients, which affects the crop. Different fertilisers, including mineral fertilisers, are used to increase yield. Conventional fertilisers can deplete soil humus, causing increased emissions, soil salinisation besides other environmental hazards. Green fertilisers are needed to restore soil fertility and improve environmental conditions. Glauconite, glauconite sands or “green sands”, containing adequate potassium and trace elements, including micronutrients, is an alternative mineral substance that can restore soil fertility and promote sustainable agriculture. This paper thoroughly assesses the evolutionary progression of glauconite, its characterisation and distribution patterns and explores its fertilisation potential. This review explains the utilisation of glauconite as a potassium source and its opportunity for creating nanocomposite fertilisers. The present review examines the environmental and economic implications of the glauconite application in agriculture. Finally, this paper offers suggestions for prospective investigations within glauconite utilisation for improving soil fertility AM_Agreement |
