How would green manure and soil microorganisms work together in enhancing soil fertility and crop yield? Name the targeted element and TWO (2) additional benefits brought by green manures to the soil?
Plant Structure and Growth
Roots anchor, the plant, ingest minerals and water, direct water and supplements, and store food. These are two kinds of root frameworks.
Plant Life Cycle
Plants are part of the PLANT KINGDOM, which is one of the five kingdoms of life. Plants are divided into smaller classes based on common characteristics. Certain characteristics are shared by all plants. They are made up of a large number of cells. They also make their own food through a chemical process called photosynthesis, which involves the use of water, carbon dioxide, and solar energy. They pump life-giving oxygen into the air as a by-product.
Life Cycle of Plants
All the organisms that belong to the Kingdom Plantae are known as plants. They are multicellular and eukaryotic and can synthesize their food by photosynthesis, known as autotrophic organisms. They are classified based on certain characteristics, such as the plants bear flowers; some have only naked seeds and do not contain flowers. Some plants neither have seeds nor flowers, such as ferns and mosses.
Plant Morphology and Anatomy
The study of life and organisms is biology. The cell is recognized as the basic unit of life by biology. From ancient Greek, biology is recognized. Modern biology deals with the recent developments in Science.

Green manure crops are advantageous to the soil and future crops. They are grown for the benefits they offer. They are used for upgrading the soil and weed control and nutrients and various organic matter.
*Green manures will helps to feed the plant as well as soil. The green manure crop feeds soil organisms and increases the fertility of the soil. Genetically fertile soil produces healthy plants which can able to fight against diseases and pests. Healthy soil is even resistant to drought.
