Effects of bamboo biochar on soil physicochemical properties and microbial diversity in tea gardens.

ABSTRACT: Biochar, a carbon-rich material that has attracted considerable interest in interdisciplinary research, is produced through a process known as pyrolysis, which involves the thermal decomposition of organic material in the absence of oxygen. Bamboo biochar is a specific type of biochar, manufactured from bamboo straw through carbonisation at 800 °C and subsequent filtration through a 100-mesh sieve. There is currently a lack of research into the potential benefits of bamboo biochar in improving soil quality in tea gardens. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of bamboo biochar on the physicochemical properties, enzymatic activity, and microbial community structure of tea garden soils. The results demonstrate that the integration of bamboo biochar into the soil significantly e
