  • Introduction: soil is a fundamental natural resource for agriculture, as it provides the physical support and nutrients necessary for plant growth.Objective: to determine the physical and chemical characteristics of soil after the application of organic fertilizers.Method: a review of the available literature in databases such as SciELO, Scopus and ClinicalKey was carried out, from which a total of 11 related articles were consulted. Empirical methods such as logical history and analysis and synthesis were used.Results: soil improvement is essential in modern agriculture. A well-structured soil rich in organic matter is less susceptible to erosion by wind and water. The use of organic fertilizers contributes significantly to environmental sustainability. The creation and use of customized organic fertilizers represents an innovative and sustainable solution for soil improvement. The use of organic fertilizers can restore soil nutrients and increase agricultural productivity.Conclusions: the implementation of organic fertilizers is an efficient strategy to optimize agricultural performance, and is also a sustainable and environmentally friendly option that contributes to the continuous improvement of soil health and greater stability in crop production.
