Biochar and manure amendments impact soil nutrients and microbial enzymatic activities in a semi-arid irrigated maize cropping system

•Biochar increased soil total C, and slightly varied microbial biomass and moisture.•Manure increased soil total soil N, available P, microbial biomass and moisture.•Activity of extracellular enzymes shifted with biochar, but not with manure amendment.•Limited irrigation maintained maize yield, whil...
