Abstract
Biochar has gained significant attention due to its ability to improve soil quality, reduce carbon emissions and improve crop yield.The use of only conventional fertilizer is not the way to sustainable agriculture, but the combined use with biochar can improve soil fertility and enhance nutrient uptake.This study used different biochar levels consisting of B0 (0% biochar, 0 gpot -1 ); B1 (100% biochar, 4 gpot -1 ); B2 (200% biochar, 8 gpot -1 ) each combined with nitrogen-based fertilizer (urea and slow releasing fertilizer [SRF]) applied as F1 and F2 respectively under greenhouse environment during the winter season.The data were taken 100 and 121 days after transplanting (DAT).The overall results shows that 200% biochar with urea (B2F1) had a significant influence on plant height, grain dry weight, total chlorophyll, and nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) of about 30%, 200%, 100%, 95% respectively in both Mibaek #2 and Taeyangchal.These findings give a comparable understanding of the physiological growth, grain yield, and enhanced NUE in corn production.Keywords: biochar, nitrogen use efficiency, nitrogen-based fertilizer, physiological properties and growth of plant.Collectively, these results emphasize the importance of biochar as a based fertilization for primary strategy for improving nitrogen efficiency and yield whiles also considering genotype-specific management.This underscores the necessity of tailoring fertilization strategies to crop genotype for sustainable productivity.While these findings provide significant insights, it is also important to note that the controlled greenhouse environments may not fully capture the variability present under field condition, therefore, seasonal and long-term effects were not assessed in this study.Future research should focus on multi-seasonal and field-level trials to better evaluate the broader applicability.
