The potential for biochar application in “Shatangju” (Citrus reticulate cv.) orchard on acid red soil: Biochar prepared from its organic waste in an orchard
Abstract:Carbonization of agricultural and forestry wastes is the main use of biochar application in agriculture. In this study, the effects of biochar on the physical and chemical properties of soil and diversity in rhizosphere microorganisms, leaf nutrients and fruit quality of acid red soil in “Shatangju” (Citrus reticulate cv.) orchard were studied using organic wastes and small-scale carbonization furnaces from orchards were used to produce biochar. The results showed that the finished rate of biochar produced fro… Show more
