Abstract: 
Biofertilizers are a sustainable and eco-friendly alternative to chemical fertilizers, gaining increasing attention in agriculture due to their numerous benefits (Bhardwaj et al., 2014; Vessey, 2003). Derived from living organisms, biofertilizers enhance soil fertility and plant growth by facilitating nutrient uptake, improving soil structure, and promoting beneficial microbial activity (Malusá&Vassilev, 2014). This commentary explores the significance of biofertilizers in modern agriculture, their types, benefits, challenges, and future prospects.
