Natural soil amendments enhance soil quality by supplying organic nutrients and improving its structure. Materials like compost, animal manure, wood ash, and biochar are commonly used to enrich the soil naturally. These amendments boost microbial activity, increase water retention, and create an ideal environment for root development. Unlike synthetic fertilizers, they break down slowly, ensuring a steady nutrient supply over time. Additionally, natural amendments help balance soil pH and reduce erosion, contributing to long-term fertility. By relying on organic solutions, farmers and gardeners can promote sustainable practices while nurturing healthier and more productive crops.
