Abstract

This chapter delves into the regulatory framework and quality standards for using biomass ash and biochar as fertilizers or soil improvers in sustainable agriculture. It highlights the growing importance of these materials in the context of a circular economy and sustainable agriculture, emphasizing their benefits such as nutrient content and carbon sequestration. The text discusses the regulatory framework for biomass ash and biochar, including EU regulations like the Fertilizing Products Regulation (EU) 2019/1009, which sets criteria for these materials to be marketed as fertilizers. It also explores quality and safety standards, focusing on heavy metals, organic pollutants, and nutrient content. The chapter concludes by examining future agricultural policy perspectives, providing a comprehensive overview of the current state and future directions in this evolving field.
