    Agriculture" for consideration for publication in your esteemed journal. The focus of this Perspective paper is on the crucial role of plant microbiome technology in advancing sustainable agricultural practices.As highlighted in the Abstract, the interactions between plants and microorganisms play a vital role in enhancing plant growth and resilience. While there have been significant advancements in microbiome modulation technologies for sustainable agriculture, challenges such as inconsistent microbial colonization, competition with native microbiota, and environmental variability have limited their widespread application in the field. Our review addresses these challenges by proposing a data-driven strategy that integrates genomic profiling, environmental assessments, and optimized delivery systems to select effective microbial strains for enhancing crop health and productivity.
