Agricultural practices are essential for food production, but they also pose significant environmental challenges when nutrient management is neglected. Excessive fertilizer use has led to severe ecological impacts worldwide. In Spain, the Mar Menor lagoon has suffered from nitrate pollution, causing algal blooms and biodiversity loss. Similarly, Florida’s Everglades and coastal waters face phosphorus-driven eutrophication and harmful algal blooms, threatening ecosystems and local economies.
Nutritional control testing—a systematic approach to analyzing soil and fertilizer composition—can help prevent such crises. By ensuring balanced nutrient application, we can protect soil health, reduce runoff, and contribute to sustainable agriculture for future generations.
