Other claims from this paper (10)
- Association Biochar addition increased the proportions and contributions of dry matter and nutrient remobilisation from pre-anthesis organs to grain.
- Association Adding C promoted maize yield by 23% in 2021 compared with 5% in 2022.
- Association The discrepancies in maize yield between C1 and C2 were small and not significant.
- Association Effects of P and C P on maize were relatively modest.
- Intervention effect Biochar addition significantly improved soil organic carbon, total N and soil available N in the maize field.
- Intervention effect Biochar addition significantly improved soil hydraulic conductivity (Ks) and bulk density in the maize field.
- Association Combined C and P had negative interactions on soil available P and phosphorus activation coefficient.
- Association Soil available P was lowered with more combined input of C and P.
- Association Biochar addition could enhance maize growth and ensure crop yield stability.
- Recommendation Combined incorporation of C and P, especially C2P2, is not recommended in saline-alkali land for maize.
