The total global food demand is expected to increase up to 50% between 2010 and 2050;
hence, there is a clear need to increase plant productivity with little or no damage to the …

Crop production in acid soils is facing enormous challenges due to low soil quality
associated with an increase in the acidification rate and aluminum toxicity. Despite …

(1) Background: Few studies have focused on the interaction of tillage and straw returning
on soil carbon and nitrogen. Therefore, this study was conducted for investigating the effects …

Biochar, a pyrogenic carbon, has been receiving incremental attention for potential
contribution to soil health, agricultural productivity enhancement while mitigating climate …

The study was aimed to evaluate the effect of successive applications of increasing biochar
rates along with other mineral fertilizers and poultry manure on onion nutrition and yield. The …

Purpose This study aims to evaluate the effects of chitosan and D-fructose 1, 6-bisphosphate

Soil acidification in tea gardens has become an increasingly serious problem. In this study,
we conducted an outdoor pot experiment to investigate the effects of pruned tea leaf biochar …

The scarcity of phosphorus (P) restricts crop growth due to reduced P uptake in acidic soil.
Due to significant variations in soil pH in acidic Ultisol, it is still unclear how such variations …

The roles of biochar in capturing CO2 and ensuring food security are intertwined. Thus, a
comprehensive understanding of these roles is crucial for optimizing the environmental …

Climate change has accentuated extreme events such as drought and flooding, thus altering
