Which plant can survive in the terrible atmosphere of Mars? Because there is no atmosphere like Earth. there is no water. Preparations are underway to send humans to Mars. So what will they eat there? Will grow some crops. This story is going on somewhat like the Hollywood movie The Martian. Where actor Matt Damon tries to grow plants to save himself.

Simply put, given the soil, atmosphere, and atmosphere of Mars, it is impossible that any kind of plants can be grown there. According to a recent study, there is a plant that can be grown there. Its name is the alfalfa plant. It is a type of plant that is commonly used as fodder.

Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is a flowering plant of the pea family Fabaceae. It is cultivated as an important fodder crop. Known as Lucerne in the United Kingdom, Australia, South Africa, and New Zealand. In South Asia as Lucerne grass. Scientists believe that this plant can be used as manure on Mars. After this, plants like turnips, radishes, and lettuce can be grown there.

A report about this has recently been published in PLOS ONE. In which it is written that the alfalfa plant can survive on the volcanic soil of Mars. This plant can also be planted there. Because it requires less nutrients and water. With the help of this plant, scientists can plant more plants on the surface of Mars.

According to the study, the nutrients of the soil of Mars can be increased by the alfalfa plant. From which later other types of plants and crops can be grown there. Also, it will help in balancing the amount of water in the soil there. It was told in the old research that it is very difficult to grow any crop or plant on the surface of Mars.

There is a shortage of nutrients on Mars. To accomplish this, the alfalfa plant can help. Scientists created an atmosphere like Mars and allowed this plant to grow in it. That too without any fertilizer. Later this plant was used as a fertilizer, so turnips, radishes, and lettuce began to grow there. That too faster and with less water requirement. Alfalfa helped all three plants grow.

Like Earth, there is no water on Mars, but particles of water are present. which can be used for plant nutrition. This is the first time that the alfalfa plant has been converted into a bio-fertilizer. With its help, the soil of Mars can be made fertile. However, more research is still needed on this. Research is also going on.

The soil created in the laboratory lacked some of the toxic percolate salts. The rest of the soil was similar to Mars. To grow crops on Mars, the first thing to do is to clean such salts with desalinated water. So that after that crops can be grown on it.

Scientists believe that instead of storing food with large refrigerators on Mars, soil fertility can be increased with the help of the alfalfa plant. It will be cheaper too. This plant can be used for a long time on Mars. In the future, this will make it easier to establish a human colony.
