Decomposers are important not only because they break down dead organic matter but also because they “fix” non-usable forms of nitrogen into forms that are usable by the next generations of plants.

Without decomposition, and without external supplies of nutrients, eventually future generations of plants would run out of nitrogen, potassium, and phosphorus (as well as other critical trace minerals). Once the plants cease to exist, all other organisms in the ecosystem that directly or indire depend on them would not remain in just a generation or two.
