Abstract:AimsBiochar has been used as an amendment to improve soil fertility and increase crop yield. A pot trial and incubation experiment were conducted to evaluate the effects of combined biochar and phosphate fertilizer applications on changes in soil physiochemical properties, photosynthetic parameters, and plant growth of Brassica napus L. in acidic soil.MethodsBiochar (B) was applied at rates (B0: 0%, B1: 2%, and B2: 4% w/w) to the soil, while phosphorus (P) as KH2PO4 was added at P0: 0 mg kg–1 soil, P1: 100 mg … Show more
