Abstract: Cadmium concentrations in cacao (Theobroma cacao L.) beans from South America often exceed trade limits. Liming soil is advocated as a remediation option, but amendments cannot be incorporated into the entire root zone without harming… read more here.

DOI: 10.1139/cjss-2021-0017
Abstract: Soil amended with biochar is expected to produce less nitrous oxide (N2O), although this may depend on nitrate (NO3-N) availability. Our objective was to determine how pine wood biochar, slow pyrolyzed at 500 °C, affects N2O… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2023.1072228
Abstract: The cropping system affects the physicochemical property and microbial community of paddy soil. Previous research mostly focused on the study of soil 0–20 cm underground. However, there may be difference in the laws of nutrient and… read more here.
