Evaluation of biochemical and enzymatic indicators of soil fertility and health in organic versus conventional farming systems
International Journal of Advanced Biochemistry Research · 2025 · Vol. 9(6) · pp. 147–151
Abstract
Soil health assessment requires integration of multiple biochemical parameters reflecting microbial activity and nutrient cycling capacity. This research compared enzymatic indicators across organic and conventional farming systems in the Pampas region of Argentina. Soil samples from 24 paired sites were analyzed for dehydrogenase, urease, phosphatase, and β-glucosidase activities alongside microbial biomass carbon and nitrogen. Organic systems demonstrated significantly higher enzyme activities (p
