A new study reports that specially engineered biochar can significantly improve compost quality by reducing nitrogen loss and accelerating the formation of stable humic substances. The findings offer ...

Afforestation transforms degraded soils in semi-arid regions, increasing microbial necromass and enhancing soil carbon and nitrogen pools, thereby improving ecosystem health.

Over the years, various methods have been developed to tackle soil compaction. Techniques like composting, applying soil amendments, and introducing microorganisms have been somewhat successful.
