Abstract

The chapter delves into the application of biomass ash and biochar as fertilizers, focusing on their methods of application, research findings, and practical uses across various crops. Biomass ash, derived from full combustion, is rich in potassium, calcium, and phosphorus, making it a valuable mineral fertilizer and liming agent. Biochar, produced through pyrolysis, enhances soil structure, water retention, and nutrient availability. The text discusses the effectiveness of these materials in improving soil fertility and crop yields, with notable benefits observed in field crops and forestry. It also addresses environmental safety, highlighting the importance of quality control and proper application to minimize risks. The chapter concludes that biomass ash and biochar offer a sustainable and low-carbon source of fertilizer, contributing to nutrient recycling and increased agricultural resilience.
