Abstract
Estimation of the Biochar Effect on Annual Energy Crops Grown in Post-Mining Lands
Highlights
Active human activity contributes to the rapid increase in the number of unproductive lands characterized by low fertility, high degree of erosion, high acidity or alkalinity, salinity, as well as pollution with heavy metals and other toxic elements [Toy and Hadley 1987, Strijker 2005, Navarro et al 2007, Papadopoulos et al 2015]
For Maize and Sweet sorghum plants, the most pronounced effect is revealed on red-brown clay, and for Sudan grass on black soil
Biochar indirectly affects the intensity of accumulation of heavy metals by reducing their mobility and availability to plants
Summary
Active human activity contributes to the rapid increase in the number of unproductive lands characterized by low fertility, high degree of erosion, high acidity or alkalinity, salinity, as well as pollution with heavy metals and other toxic elements [Toy and Hadley 1987, Strijker 2005, Navarro et al 2007, Papadopoulos et al 2015]. As a rule, such soils are not suitable for growing agricultural plants. Despite the large number of publications devoted to biochar, many issues related to its use still need to be studied
