Abstract

Abstract: In the present study, the effect of different biochar application rate (0,10,20,30 t·hm^-2) on soil carbon and nitrogen content was explored via field test. It was shown that application of biochar increased contents of soil organic matter (SOM), total nitrogen (TN), microbial biomass carbon (MB-C), microbial biomass N (MB-N), nitrate (NO₃^--N) and ammonium (NH₄⁺-N), and the more application, the higher the contents. Compared with CK, SOM, TN, MB-C, MB-N content was increased by 6.88%-43.77%, 1.68%-15.91%, 9.76%-60.88%, 6.72%-68.91%, respectively. The highest contents for above indexes were all reached at the highest biochar application rate. Application of biochar significantly increased NH₄⁺-N and NO₃^--N content in every soil depth, and showed an overall tendency of 0-10 cm>10-20 cm>20-30 cm. Thus, application of 30 t·hm^-2 was recommended for albic soil.

Key words: biochar, albic soil, carbon, nitrogen
