Biochar particle size coupled with biofertilizer enhances soil carbon-nitrogen microbial pools and CO2 sequestration in lentil

Introduction: Biochar and biofertilizer have emerged as sustainable soil amendments to improve soil fertility and quality. However, it is necessary to determine how biochar’s various particle sizes and biofertilizers affect soil microbial biomass carbon (MBC), microbial biomass nitrogen (MBN), and C...

Zusammenfassung:Introduction: Biochar and biofertilizer have emerged as sustainable soil amendments to improve soil fertility and quality. However, it is necessary to determine how biochar’s various particle sizes and biofertilizers affect soil microbial biomass carbon (MBC), microbial biomass nitrogen (MBN), and CO 2 sequestration. Methods: This research examined two rhizobia inoculum products—Biozote-N and Rhizogold—along with three biochar particle sizes (
