Synergistic effects of aquatic weed biochar and inorganic fertilizer on soil properties, maize yield, and nitrogen use efficiency on Nitisols of Northwestern Ethiopian Highlands

Synergistic effects of aquatic weed biochar and inorganic fertilizer on soil properties, maize yield, and nitrogen use efficiency on Nitisols of Northwestern Ethiopian Highlands

Soil acidity and poor fertility limit crop production in Ethiopia. Biochar from organic wastes, such as water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes), offers a potential solution. This study investigated the effects of co-applying water hyacinth biochar (WHB) with inorganic fertilizers on soil characteristi...
