Livestock production faces increasing pressure to reduce its environmental footprint while maintaining productivity. Methane and ammonia emissions from animal agriculture contribute significantly to greenhouse gas production and environmental pollution. The livestock sector accounts for approximately 14.5% of global greenhouse gas emissions, with methane representing the largest component. Simultaneously, ammonia emissions from livestock operations contribute to air quality degradation and eutrophication of water bodies. Probiotics have emerged as a promising biotechnological solution that addresses these environmental concerns while improving animal perfor

Egyptian agriculture faces significant economic losses from terrestrial snail infestations, particularly in the Nile Delta region where humid conditions favor their proliferation. Land snails cause extensive damage to vegetables, ornamentals, fruit trees, and field crops throughout Egypt. These molluscan pests consume plant tissue, damage seedlings, contaminate produce, and serve as intermediate hosts for parasitic diseases affecting livestock and humans. The reliance on synthetic molluscicides containing metaldehyde or methiocarb poses serious risks to non-target organisms, beneficial insects, soil health, and water quality. Organic integrated pest management provid

Agricultural productivity worldwide faces significant challenges due to potassium deficiency, despite soils containing substantial reserves of total potassium. Approximately 90-98% of soil potassium exists in insoluble forms that plants cannot directly absorb, creating a critical limitation in crop nutrition. Conventional agriculture depends heavily on synthetic potassium fertilizers to address this deficiency, but these fertilizers are expensive, environmentally problematic, and derived from finite potash reserves concentrated in only a few geographical regions. The excessive use of potassium fertilizers contributes to soil salinity, nutrient imbalances, and environ

The fall armyworm belongs to the order Coleoptera, which is native to the tropical and subtropical regions of North and South America and moved to Africa in 2016 and then spread to Asia, Australia, and the Arab region (FAO 2021).

Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) is a highly contagious viral disease affecting livestock such as cattle, sheep, goats, and pigs. It is caused by a virus belonging to the family Picornaviridae, genus Aphthovirus. The disease results in significant economic losses due to reduced milk production, weight loss, infertility, and mortality of young .animals

Nitrogen-Fixing Bacteria Modern agriculture faces pressure to reduce reliance on synthetic fertilizers while maintaining crop productivity and soil health. Synthetic nitrogen fertilizers, while effective, contribute significantly to environmental degradation through greenhouse gas emissions, water pollution, and soil acidification. The agricultural sector accounts for approximately 78% of global ammonia emissions and contributes substantially to nitrous oxide production, a potent greenhouse gas. Simultaneously, synthetic fertilizer production requires enormous energy inputs and depletes finite fossil fuel resources. Nitrogen-fixing bacteria have emerged as
