Biochar, degraded and spoiled lands, Nepalese agriculture tremendous soilpotentiality management. |
| Abstract: |
Biochar, the final product of pyrolysis of biomass, can be used as a soil amendment to increase plant growth, yield, improve water quality, increase soil moisture retention and availability to plants, reduce soil emissions of greenhouse gases (GHGs), reduce leaching of nutrients, reduce soil acidity, and reduce irrigation and fertilizer requirements. These properties of soil are very dependent on the properties of the biochar, and may depend on site specific ecological conditions including soil type, condition (depleted or healthy), temperature, and humidity. Biochar can be used in the reclamation of degraded and spoiled lands (acidic, alkaline, sodic and saline soils)………………………….. |
