Abstract

This study objectives to theoretically analyze the morpho-physiological responses of mustard greens (Brassica juncea L.) to micro-environmental engineering and to formulate an efficient agronomic strategy based on a compilation of prior research data. The method used was a literature review by synthesizing secondary data from various scientific journals related to edaphic porosity manipulation and organic Nitrogen nutrient optimization. The results of the review show that edaphic engineering using porous materials such as husk biochar is consistently proven to enhance oxygen circulation in the rhizosphere, which increases the efficiency of active transport nitrate ion absorption. Optimal Nitrogen accumulation accelerates cell division in leaf mesophyll and increases chlorophyll concentration, thereby boosting carbon assimilation rates during the rapid vegetative phase (30–40 days). The implication of this study is the availability of a sustainable conceptual model for leafy vegetable horticulture cultivation using local organic materials. Based on the literature synthesis, stable micro-environmental manipulation is proven crucial to maintaining high turgor in amfistomatic guard cells, producing wide, fresh, and crispy leaves.
