Comparison between an Innovative Solarization System and Dazomet-Based Fumigation
An innovative soil solarization system based on biochar was recently proposed. The difference with traditional solarization lies in the use, after soil irrigation, of a biodegradable black liquid sprayed on the soil surface in order to obtain a black ...
