Abstract: Under various cropping systems, the combined application of manures and fertilizers played a critical role in improving soil physico-chemical characteristics and micronutrient distribution. Micronutrients in the soil are just as significant as macronutrients, and hence have an impact on soil fertility. Intensive cropping practices cause shortages in Zn, Cu, Fe, and Mn in surface and subsurface soil, which can be remedied by applying manures and fertilizers together. The goal was to look at how organic manures and inorganic fertilizers could be used to boost micronutrient availability. When organic manures are used in conjunction with chemical fertilizers, the biological activity increases, and the availability of micronutrients improves as well. Organic matter also acts as a chelating agent, making micronutrients more soluble.
