Biochar‐based fertilizers increase crop yields in acidic tropical soils

open access: yesBiofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, Volume 19, Issue 4, Page 1124-1142, July/August 2025.
Abstract Depletion of soil organic carbon and nutrients creates mounting challenges for agricultural production in tropical regions, putting livelihoods and food security at risk. Biochar‐based fertilizer (BBF) has been suggested as a tool to maintain yields while concurrently improving soil organic carbon content and related soil functions. This study
