PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 792-810, May 2026.Contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in agriculture represent a growing global challenge for food safety and public health. In this review, we synthesized evidence on how substances such as pharmaceuticals, microplastics, and per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) enter soils, accumulate in crops, and affect ecological and human health. We found

Biosolids for soil, not soil for biosolids?
Soil ResearchBiosolids are derived from wastewater treatment process. Globally, the volume of biosolids produced is increasing exponentially. Biosolids can be considered as a renewable resource. In agriculture, biosolids can be used as a carbon and nutrient source to improve soil health and agricultural productivity.

Die-off of pathogens and assessment of risks following biosolids application in pine plantations
, 2010 In Western Australia over 80,000 tonnes per annum of biosolids are produced from the treatment of wastewater. The biosolids is being disposed in a variety of land-application processes as a soil amendment.

Biosolids affect the growth, nitrogen accumulation and nitrogen leaching of barley
Plant, Soil and Environment, 2018 Biosolids are organic fertilisers derived from treated and stabilised sewage sludge that increase soil fertility and supply nitrogen to crops over a long period, but can also increase the risk of nitrogen (N) leaching.
