<div class="text-justify">▶ The successes of this strategy have been important, but it is a very inefficient and highly polluting agriculture, which has led to the loss of biological diversity, reduction of forest resources, soil erosion, climate change, etc. For this reason, it is necessary to find adequate production solutions.</p>
<p>
<div class="text-justify"> From this perspective, organic fertilizers, due to their chemical composition and physical characteristics, related to their nutrients, are a favorable element for the development of crops.</div>
<p></p>
<div class="text-justify"> The elaboration of organic fertilizers occupies a very important place in agriculture and contributes to the improvement of soil structures and fertilization through the incorporation of nutrients and microorganisms.</div>
<p></p>
<div class="text-justify"> And also to the regulation of soil pH with the use of organic fertilizers, farmers can reduce the use of external inputs and increase the efficiency of community resources, while protecting human health and the environment.</div>
