ABSTRACT
The decline in soil productivity due to intensive cultivation, unbalanced fertilization and climate change are key challenges future food security. There is no significant research conducted on the effect of organic amendments properties active carbon fractions organic-matter deficient soils under changing climate. Biochar (BC) a stabilized amendment produced from materials increasingly recognized as being able improve health crop productivity. present study was determine efficacy compost (CM) (0.5%, 1%) (w/w) animal manure (AM) alone combined with 3% biochar, fractions, properties, growth low-fertile soil. results revealed increased 46% plant height, 106% 114% fresh dry shoot weight respectively, 1,000-grain up 40% when BC 1% CM applied, compared control. Similarly, substantial increases 69% matter, 70% pool index were observed at BC, 11% microbial biomass Overall, suggest that addition along AM (1%) had greater potential pool, biomass, health, all which will ultimately enhance maize yield grown low-fertility application CM, viable green approach, not only boosts yields improves but also contributes circular economy.
