Abstract:
Rapid urban expansion and a booming population are placing immense pressure on our agricultural systems, leading to detrimental impacts on soil fertility and overall health. Due to the extensive use of agrochemicals in agriculture, the necessity to meet the expanding demand for food has also resulted in unsustainable farming practices. Around the world, biochar, a multipurpose carbonaceous material, is being used to concurrently solve issues with enhancing soil fertility, plant growth, and development under both normal and stressful circumstances. It improves water retention, fosters nutrient absorption, and promotes microbial activity, creating a fertile environment that supports sustainable and resilient agriculture. Additionally, biochar acts as a carbon sink, contributing to long-term carbon sequestration and mitigating climate change impacts. The major benefit of biochar is that it helps the adsorption process with its highly porous structures and different functional groups. Understanding the elements involved in biochar formation that determine its characteristics and adsorptive capacity is necessary to assure the viability of biochar in terms of plant productivity and soil health, particularly biological activity in soil. This paper focuses on the development, composition, and effects of biochar on soil fertility and health, and crop productivity.
摘要:
快速的城市扩张和人口激增给我们的农业系统带来了巨大的压力,导致对土壤肥力和整体健康的不利影响。由于农用化学品在农业中的广泛使用,满足不断增长的粮食需求的必要性也导致了不可持续的耕作方式。在世界各地,生物炭,多用途碳质材料,被用来同时解决提高土壤肥力的问题,植物生长,在正常和紧张的情况下发展。它改善了保水性,促进营养吸收,并促进微生物活动,创造一个支持可持续和有弹性农业的肥沃环境。此外,生物炭充当碳汇,有助于长期碳封存和减轻气候变化的影响。生物炭的主要优点是其高度多孔结构和不同官能团有助于吸附过程。了解生物炭形成中决定其特征和吸附能力的元素对于确保生物炭在植物生产力和土壤健康方面的生存能力是必要的。特别是土壤中的生物活性。本文的重点是发展,composition,以及生物炭对土壤肥力和健康的影响,和作物生产力。
