Abstract
Four commercially available radish varieties namely, Snow White, Diwata, Improved Valiant and Speedy were evaluated to identify the potential biochar on the growth and yield where the study consisted of four types of biochar viz. bamboo, coconut shell, rice hull and mango with a control (no biochar). Results revealed that among the growth and yield parameters, plant height is highly significant, fresh weight and diameter of tubers showed a significant difference, however no significant differences on the number of leaves, fresh weight of tubers, length of tubers and yield with regards to the effects of different varieties. Results also revealed that there is no significant differences were observed regardless of the varying biochar applied. Also, no significant differences were found between the interactions of the two factors. Cost and return analysis showed that T7 (V2B1-Diwata + Bamboo) obtained the highest gross income, net income, and ROI. It is therefore recommended to have further study with the use of varying types of biochar with an increasing amount of application.
