Summary
Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a staple food crop worldwide, but faces significant challenges including declining soil fertility, increasing fertilizer costs, and environmental concerns associated with conventional nutrient management practices. This review explores next-generation strategies for enhancing wheat productivity and soil quality through innovative nutrient management approaches. We discuss precision agriculture techniques, such as site-specific nutrient management and variable rate fertilization, which can improve nutrient use efficiency and reduce environmental impacts. The role of organic amendments, including compost, manure, and biochar, in improving soil health and nutrient availability is also examined. Additionally, we highlight the potential of plant growth-promoting
