Application of Biochar in Agricultural Soil Green Remediation and Sustainable Development

Sustainable agriculture, characterized by agriculture profitably while derogating destroy to the environment, is not easy to practice. For this purpose, biochar has attracted enormous attention because of its abilities to change soil properties, improve soil fertility, remove pollutants, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions, thereby enhancing agricultural sustainable development. This paper aims to discuss the influence of biochar on agricultural soil fertility and crop productivity. The agricultural productivity can be increased by biochar play various beneficial roles as a fertilizer and soil amendment. Furthermore, biochar in the remediation of soil contamination were discussed. At the same time, application of biochar in agriculture may have an important result on reducing global warming through the decrease of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and the sequestering of atmospheric carbon (C) into soil. Biochar is considered as one of the optimal management strategies to address agriculture challenges. However, the effects of a combination of factors should be considered carefully prior to application.
