“…Along with that, excessive use of chemical salts to provide nutrition is the other source of toxic compounds. Some organic sources of crop nutrition, such as sewage and sludge and night soil, are also reported to contain a high amount of heavy metals (Walia and Goyal, 2010;Saha et al, 2018), causing adverse effects on soil health. The reason for the increasing contribution of agrochemicals to soil chemical degradation is their unregulated and uncontrolled use (Bhardwaj and Sharma, 2013) and lack of proper knowledge and awareness on the use of agrochemicals.…”

Soil is an important natural resource providing water, nutrient, and mechanical support for plant growth. In agroecosystem, continuous manipulation of soil is going on due to addition of input, removal of nutrients, changing water balance, and microbial life. These processes affect soil properties (physical, chemical, and biological), and the deviation of these properties from the normal status is controlled by soil buffering capacity and soil resilience. If these changes are beyond the reach of soil resilience, then soil loses its original state, leading to soil degradation. At present, the extent of the degraded area in the world is 1,036 to 1,470 million ha. This urges the need for maintaining soil health rather than the mere addition of input for crop production. Soil health is an integrative property that reflects the capacity of soil to respond to agricultural intervention, so that it continues to support both agricultural production and the provision of other ecosystem services. Maintaining the physical, chemical, and biological properties of soil is needed to keep it healthy, and this is possible through the adoption of different agronomic approaches. The diversification of nutrient sources with emphasis on organic sources, adoption of principles of conservation agriculture, enhancement of soil microbial diversity, efficient resource recycling through the integrated farming system, and amendment addition for correcting soil reactions are potential options for improving soil health, and are discussed in this review. This article reviewed the concept of soil health and its development, issues related to soil health, and indicators of healthy soil. At the same time, the impact of the ill health of the soil on crop productivity and resource use efficiency reported in different parts of the world in recent years are also reviewed. The agro-techniques such as green and brown manuring in arable land and agroforestry on degraded and marginal land were followed on piece meal basis and for economic gain. The potential of these and several other options for maintaining soil need to be recognized, evaluated, and quantified for their wider application on the front of soil health management avenues. The use of crop residue, agro-industrial waste, and untreated mineral or industrial waste (basic slag, phosphogypsum, etc.) as soil amendments has a huge potential in maintaining healthy soil along with serving as sources of crop nutrition. The review emphasizes the evaluation and quantification of present-day followed agro-techniques for their contribution to soil health improvement across agro-climatic regions and for wider implications. Furthermore, emphasis is given to innovative approaches for soil health management rather than mere application of manures and fertilizers for crop nutrition.

“…Important biological parameters like soil microbial biomass (SMB) and enzymes are quite sensitive to soil disturbance after application of wastes (Araujo et al 2010). Some previous studies have reported the long-term effect of municipal waste on chemical and biological properties (Bastida et al 2008;Walia and Goyal 2010;Srivastava et al 2016). So far, there are no studies evaluating the effect of CTS on soil chemical and biological parameters in the long term, i.e., longer than years.…”

“…The application of sewage sludge to agricultural land is an economical and sustainable method both of recovering nutrients and of disposing of sewage sludge (Lundina et al, 2004;Laturnus et al, 2007;Ghazy et al, 2011). Enriching the soil in organic materials and providing nutrient or fertilizing materials such as nitrogen and phosphorus are the major advantages of this treatment, which can result in an increase in the productivity of the soil (Walia and Goyal, 2010;Saviozzi and Cardelli, 2014). Detailed studies have been conducted on this topic by many researchers in various countries (Gascó and Lobo, 2007;Laturnus et al, 2007).…”

The aim of this study was to determine the possible effects on soil health and crop yield of the application of anaerobically digested sewage sludge (SS) at doses of 10 (SS 1 ), 20 (SS 2 ) and 30 (SS 3 ) t ha -1 yr -1 to degraded soils under maize (Zea mays L.) and cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) in the semi-arid Mediterranean ecosystem in Turkey. Application of SS at different doses did not show any disruptive effect on microbial biomass and activity in the soil. In the microbiochemical parameters analyzed in the soils under the two plant covers treated with SS, increases were seen of 29-30% compared with control, and of 28-30% in comparison with chemical fertilizer application. Yield increases secured by chemical fertilizers were statistically significantly higher than those from the SS 1 . In maize grain yield, statistically significant increases were shown in comparison with the control of 90% with SS 3 and of 86% with SS 2 . Similarly, seed cotton showed a statistically significant increase in yield of 72% with SS 3 . Results obtained from the study show that for degraded soils in Mediterranean biodegradability conditions, application of SS at a rate of 30 t ha -1 yr -1 can be used both as a soil improver to maintain the soil and as an organic fertilizer to increase crop yield.
