In this paper we wanted to highlight the very close link between the relationships of soil microorganisms, soil microbiota and the optimal functioning of agroecosystems, which is reflected in the rich harvest obtained in both households presented as case studies. Due to the systems of good agricultural practices which are respected in both households presented in the case study, the functioning of agroecosystems is optimal and this is reflected both in soil health - expressed as biodiversity and the functioning of microorganisms and in plant health.
