Optimizing biochar addition for vermicomposting: a comprehensive evaluation of earthworms’ activity, N2O emissions and compost quality
Abstract Biochar addition has been widely used in the field to mitigate soil nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions, and can be considered as a potential method to reduce N2O emissions during vermicomposting. However, excessive biochar addition may inhibit earthworms’ activity. Thus, it is crucial to clarify the optimum addition volumes of biochar during vermicomposting. This study […]

Biochar improves diary pasture yields by alleviating P and K constraints with no influence on soil respiration or N2O emissions
Abstract Dairy pastures can be a major source of soil nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions due to the combination of intensive nitrogen (N) fertiliser use and high soil water content, from either rainfall and/or irrigation. Biochar application is a promising approach to lower soil greenhouse gas emissions, particularly under high soil moisture conditions where denitrification is […]
