        abstract = {Sustainable agriculture is essential for ensuring food security while minimizing environmental degradation and protecting human health. Conventional agricultural practices rely heavily on synthetic fertilizers, pesticides, and soil amendments that contribute to soil degradation, water contamination, biodiversity loss, and adverse health effects. Green chemistry offers innovative approaches to redesign agricultural inputs and practices using environmentally benign, resource-efficient, and safer alternatives. This review critically examines green chemistry strategies applied in sustainable agriculture and soil health, focusing on eco-friendly fertilizers, biopesticides, soil conditioners, and waste-derived amendments. The environmental and health benefits, along with challenges and future research directions, are discussed to highlight the role of green chemistry in achieving resilient and sustainable agroecosystems.},
