Organic Plant Disease Management: Harnessing the Power of Micro fungi
Organic plant disease management is a crucial component of sustainable agriculture, reducing the reliance on synthetic chemicals while maintaining crop health. Microfungi play a significant role in controlling plant diseases through mechanisms such as competition, parasitism, and induced systemic resistance. This paper explores the application of microfungi in organic farming, their role in soil health improvement, and their efficacy as biocontrol agents. By reviewing current research, field trials, and case studies, this study identifies the benefits, challenges, and future directions in harnessing microfungi for sustainable disease management.
