Integration of bioresources into crop production: a brief review

   Introduction. Continuous cultivation without adequate nutrient replenishment leads to decreased soil productivity due to the depletion of essential nutrients that support the growth and development of agricultural plants. This also causes an imbalance in the ecosystem, leading to decreased land productivity and, ultimately, a decline in both the quantity and quality of agricultural production. Bioresources are natural, safe, and readily available products that are considered to be the core of the bioeconomy. Bioresources derived from plants, animals, and microorganisms play a key role in replacing synthetic resources with natural alternatives.

   The goal of the research was to identify the use of key bioresources, such as biofertilizers and biopesticides, as an alternative to chemical products to create a safe and sustainable agricultural system.

   The objects and methods of research. The research was based on the theoretical and applied works of Russian scientists. Statistical and comparative analyses, generalization, synthesis, and forecasting were used.

   The results and discussion. The central role of bioresources in the development of crop production in the direction of ensuring sustainability, adaptation to climate change, and food security were emphasized. Integration of bioresources of plant, animal, and microbial origin, organic systems can significantly reduce dependence on synthetic materials, while simultaneously increase soil fertility, pathogen resistance, and environmental stability. The potential of these biological products to stimulate the growth of soil microorganisms and plant productivity has been noted. Therefore, the productive use of bioresources is considered strategically important for achieving safe and sustainable food production.

   Conclusion. The research will help stakeholders identify best practices, improve the efficiency of bioresource use, and ultimately facilitate the wider adoption and scaling of sustainable agricultural systems worldwide.
