Organic coating on biochar explains its nutrient retention and stimulation of soil fertility

Effect of integrated use of biochar, FYM and nitrogen fertilizer on soil organic fertility

The study was conducted to determine the interactive effects of biochar application in combination with farm yard manure (FYM) and nitrogen (N) fertilizer on soil organic matter (SOM) and mineral nitrogen at Agricultural Research Farm of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Agricultural University Peshawar in 2010-2011. Soil samples at 0-15 cm depth were collected from maize and mungbean plots at harvest stage (...

Organic carbon and nutrient release from a range of laboratory-produced biochars and biochar–soil mixtures

Contaminant immobilization and nutrient release by biochar soil amendment: roles of natural organic matter.

Contamination of soil interstitial waters by labile heavy metals such as Cu(II), Cd(II), and Ni(II) is of worldwide concern. Carbonaceous materials such as char and activated carbon have received considerable attention in recent years as soil amendment for both sequestering heavy metal contaminants and releasing essential nutrients like sulfur. Information is currently lacking in how aging impa...

Effect of Organic and Inorganic Sources of Nitrogen on Maize Yield,N Uptake and Soil Fertility

mineral and organic N sources (farmyard manure) on maize yield, N uptake and soil fertility was assisted in the field experiment carriedout on silty clay loam soil at new developmental farm of the university of agriculture, Peshawar Pakistanduring 2014. Combined dose of N provided from all sources was applied @150 kg ha-1. There were four replications and 6 treatmentsi.e., (T1) control, (T2) 15...
