Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

The optimum sustainable development of crops is dependent upon soil fertility, especially in terms of physical, chemical, and biological fertility. These aspects of soil work in harmony to promote beneficial interactions so as to ensure optimal plant nutrition, favoring physiological aspects and strengthening the antioxidant defense system and, consequently, crop productivity. Currently, there is evidence of advances in plant nutrition based on research involving nanotechnology, soil microbiology, the use of biostimulants (amino acids, hormones, silicon, selenium), biofortification, and the use of agricultural sensors to quickly assess the nutritional status of crops.

Preprints.org is a multidisciplinary platform offering a preprint service designed to facilitate the early sharing of your research. It supports and empowers your research journey from the very beginning.

MDPI Topics is collaborating with Preprints.org and has established a direct connection between MDPI journals and the platform. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity by posting their preprints at Preprints.org prior to publication:

  1. Share your research immediately: disseminate your ideas prior to publication and establish priority for your work.
  2. Safeguard your intellectual contribution: Protect your ideas with a time-stamped preprint that serves as proof of your research timeline.
  3. Boost visibility and impact: Increase the reach and influence of your research by making it accessible to a global audience.
  4. Gain early feedback: Receive valuable input and insights from peers before submitting to a journal.
  5. Ensure broad indexing: Web of Science (Preprint Citation Index), Google Scholar, Crossref, SHARE, PrePubMed, Scilit and Europe PMC.
