Frjóvga

Frjóvga is an Icelandic verb that translates to "to fertilize" or "to impregnate" in English. It is used in various contexts, most commonly in biology and agriculture.

In a biological sense, frjóvga refers to the process of fertilization, where male and female gametes combine to form a zygote, initiating the development of a new organism. This can apply to plants, animals, and other living things. For example, it describes the process of a sperm cell fertilizing an egg cell in animals or the fertilization of an ovule by pollen in plants.

In agriculture and horticulture, frjóvga can also refer to the application of fertilizers to soil to promote plant growth and yield. This involves enriching the soil with nutrients that plants need to thrive. The term thus encompasses both the natural biological process and the human-assisted enhancement of fertility. The concept of frjóvgun is fundamental to reproduction and the propagation of species, as well as to food production and the maintenance of ecosystems.
