Impact of a woody biochar on properties of a sandy loam soil and spring barley during a two-year field experiment

摘要

Biochar is often proposed to increase soil quality and crop yield, while sequestering carbon. Despite the growing number of studies in temperate regions, the claimed positive effects are still unsure for northwestern European soils. Moreover, there is a need to upscale results from lab and pot studies in these soil types to field experiments.
