Description
This book explores the transformative potential of biochar, a sustainable solution to the global challenges of crop residue management, soil fertility, and climate change. It examines how converting agricultural biomass into biochar through thermo-chemical processes can not only mitigate the environmental harms of on-farm burning but also enhance soil health, increase water efficiency, and improve nutrient availability. The book discusses biochar’s role in carbon sequestration and its impact on reducing greenhouse gas emissions, positioning it as a viable strategy to tackle food security, climate change, and energy demands simultaneously, especially in regions like India facing rapid economic growth.
