- Intervention effect Drought significantly affected gas exchange and water use efficiency in sorghum.
- Intervention effect Drought significantly affected sorghum biomass and grain yield.
- Intervention effect Drought had no significant effect on sorghum stomatal size and density.
- Intervention effect Biochar had no significant effect on sorghum stomatal size and density.
- Recommendation The authors suggested that higher biochar doses and more time may be needed for crops in carbon-rich soils to benefit under drought.
