Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Biochar reduced nitrate leaching relative to no biochar, with T4 and T5 lowest.
- Intervention effect Biochar treatments increased wheat grain yield relative to treatments without biochar.
- Intervention effect Biochar treatments increased nitrogen uptake relative to treatments without biochar.
- Association Reduced nitrate leaching coincided with increased soil nitrogen retention.
- Association Reduced nitrate leaching coincided with enhanced plant growth parameters.
- Recommendation The authors identify 2% biochar with 150 kg N ha-1 as most effective for wheat production and nitrate reduction.
