Microplastics in Agricultural Soil: Fate, Impacts, and Bioremediation by Earthworms
Microplastics enter the soil through various means, including the degradation of plastic film mulch, waste from cosmetics industries and municipalities, and the use of bioplastic seed coatings. These microplastics disrupt soil structure, microbial activity, enzyme function, and plant growth.
