Foliar application of wood distillate boosts plant yield and nutritional parameters of chickpea
Wood distillate sprayed on foliage of chickpea plants increases the content of most of the amino acids in the seeds, thus providing an effective and sustainable alternative to the consumption of animal‐based products for human nutrition. Abstract In the quest for eco‐friendly products with biostimulant properties, foliar application of wood distillate (

Biochar supply‐chain and challenges to commercialization
Abstract Produced through pyrolysis, biochars are used as a soil amendment. Differences in feedstock and processing result in differentiated products which impact their values in different soil conditions. Despite the enormous potential, biochars have not been widely used.
