You can grow wheat or corn following all the rules of agricultural technology, but what you can’t see still gets into the crop. Microplastics in the soil are the new invisible enemy that quietly seeps into the root zone and ends up… in your food.
Most farmers don’t even suspect where it comes from:
Studies show that in fields that have used agrofilm for more than 5 years, the amount of microplastics in the soil increases several times.
The plant’s root system is able to absorb nanoparticles along with water and minerals. As a result:
📌 According to research from China and Germany, microplastics were found in 12% of tested wheat samples.
✔️ Use certified fertilizers tested for plastic content.
✔️ Replace agrofilm with biodegradable materials.
✔️ Monitor irrigation sources, do not use wastewater without checking.
✔️ Monitor: modern laboratories in Ukraine already offer soil analysis for microplastics.
Microplastics in soil are not a myth, but a new challenge for the agricultural sector. Whoever is the first to learn to control their levels will not only get a cleaner harvest, but also an advantage in a market where consumers increasingly value environmental friendliness.
