The Combined Effect of Biochar and Mineral Fertilizer on Triticale Yield, Soil Properties under Different Tillage Systems

Abstract: This study examined the effect of study time, biochar dose, and fertilization-tillage system on the improvement of sandy loam physical-chemical properties and triticale grain yield. The soil properties (water holding capacity (WHC), wettability, moisture content (MC), organic matter content (SOM), pH, and electrical conductivity (EC) were monitored in short time intervals (after 3, 6, 12, and 24 months). Soil was tilled in two methods (shallow ploughless tillage and direct drilling), fertilized with nitrogen, … Show more

“…The co-application of biochar and BOF significantly increased both the TN and the AN content, which may be related to biochar feedstock and the ability of organic fertilizer and biochar to increase N compared to biochar alone [45]. Biochar amendment significantly increased the content of the OC and OM, which is consistent with the results of previous studies [41,[46][47][48][49]. However, the addition of BOF had no effect, while B_BOF led to the greatest improvement of all of the treatments.…”

“…This may be due to the pH of the biochar that was used in the current study being lower than that of the soil, or the secretion of organic acids from the stimulated roots of the plants receiving the fertilizer treatment [40]. The EC of soil was shown to vary significantly in response to biochar application in different studies [41][42][43]. The EC may have decreased in this study because salt-tolerant plants grow better in response to biochar and BOF, or because different raw materials or preparation methods were used in the biochar manufacturing process.…”

“…They concluded Kc in leaves and stems could be used to predict seed cotton yield [50,51]. Also, similar results were found in other crops, where soil conductivity was positively correlated with yield in winter wheat and maize, mainly attributed to higher N, P, and K nutrients [52][53][54]. In this study, N, P, and K content were all positively correlated with yield, with a lower correlation between Nc and yield at the FB and a higher correlation among Pc, Kc, and yield at FB, suggesting that the main limiting factors for high yield are P and K, especially P fertilizer.…”

“…Nowadays, triticale production is around 13 million tons worldwide, and Europe is the major triticale-producing region with almost 90% of the global triticale production and a tendency to expand into areas with soils and climate unfavorable to wheat and rye [ 2 , 3 ]. It is a cereal with a high yield potential; resistance to winter, drought and diseases; tolerance to the toxicity of salts; and high adaptation to the environment (high yields are obtained on slopes, soils, clayey, sandy soils with poor soil) [ 4 , 5 ]. Triticale can easily adapt to different growing conditions, and in this way, it may be a reliable crop for food production.…”
