Compost and dolomite improve soil conditions and significantly reduce the cytotoxicity and genotoxicity caused by mining waste on Allium cepa
Key Points
Cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of mining waste decreased significantly with compost and dolomite application, improving soil health.
The use of compost and dolomite led to a notable reduction in harmful effects on Allium cepa, indicating enhanced soil conditions.
Assessment using soil improvement interventions showed a marked decrease in toxicity levels, measured through standard bioassays.
Highlights the potential for compost and dolomite to serve as effective treatments for mitigating mining waste impacts.
