Biofertilizers, consisting of beneficial microorganisms that promote plant growth, have emerged as a promising alternative to synthetic fertilizers in sustainable agriculture. This review aims to study a comprehensive analysis of the effects of biofertilizers on root vegetable cultivation, encompassing aspects such as yield, nutrient uptake, and overall plant health. By synthesizing the findings from numerous studies, this article sheds light on the potential benefits and challenges associated with the use of biofertilizers in root vegetable production. The study highlights the mechanisms through which biofertilizers interact with root vegetables, including nitrogen fixation, phosphate solubilization, and the production of plant growth-promoting substances. Additionally, the article examines the influence of biofertilizers on various root vegetable species, such as carrots, radishes, beets, and potatoes. Furthermore, the review explores the synergistic effects of combining biofertilizers with other agricultural practices, such as organic amendments and crop rotation.
