- Intervention effect Woodchip biochar alone improved growth during water stress relative to vineyard biochar.
- Intervention effect Woodchip biochar treatments allowed quicker recovery after drought.
- Intervention effect Woodchip biochar alone and mixed with vermicompost produced higher leaf number, leaf area and SPAD index than vineyard biochar treatments.
- Intervention effect Woodchip biochar treatments produced higher leaf and stem fresh weight and dry matter than vineyard biochar treatments.
- Intervention effect Woodchip biochar treatments had main panicle length and sub-panicle counts similar to the well-watered control and above vineyard biochar treatments.
- Intervention effect Woodchip biochar treatments improved panicle and sub-panicle weight and dry matter relative to vineyard biochar treatments.
- Observation Woodchip biochar plants had a low turgid to dry weight ratio, supporting better growth than vineyard biochar.
- Intervention effect Woodchip biochar alone and mixed produced higher WUE than vineyard biochar treatments.
- Intervention effect Vermicompost alone and mixed produced higher WUE than vineyard biochar treatments.
