Abstract: Organic fertilizers are crucial to China's agriculture, significantly enhancing soil fertility and sustainability. Derived from sources like livestock manure, crop residues, and green manure, these fertilizers improve soil structure, water retention, and nutrient availability, thus boosting crop yields and soil health. Despite their benefits, challenges such as variability in quality, application efficiency, and balancing with inorganic fertilizers remain. Government policies and ongoing research are addressing these issues to optimize the use of organic fertilizers and support sustainable agricultural practices.
