| Abstract: |
Biochar is a form of charcoal produced (generally) by burning biomass at high temperatures in the absence of air, in a process called pyrolysis. This substance has the potential to have a positive impact on the environment. The positive impact on the environment is manifested through the improvement of soil fertility, reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, improvement of water quality, and reduction of dependence on fossil fuels. The presence of biochar in the germination bed of plants provides an improvement in the soil’s water retention capacity, which can lead to an increase in crop yields. However, the use of biochar must be carefully managed to prevent unwanted side effects and to maximize its benefits. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
