The effect of biochar co-application with soil prebiotic on biomass production and soil basal respiration
Original language description
One of the most important problems of this century is an increase in abundance of atmospheric CO2. Because of this phenomenon, slowing down the climate change through sequestration of carbon in soil has been a popular topic of discussion during the last decade. At the same time, we are as a society dealing with another urgent problem of soil degradation. The goal of this contribution is to assess co-application of biochar combined with soil prebiotic in context of its biomass production and basal respiration influence. Two kinds of biochar were used to conduct the pot experiment (composted biochar - beech wood feedstock and fresh sewage sludge biochar). Co-application of composted biochar with soil prebiotic resulted in decrease of shoot biomass meanwhile no significant change in root biomass occurred compared to composted biochar treatment with no prebiotic applied. Co-application of fresh sewage sludge biochar with prebiotic leaded to significant decrease in root biomass meanwhile there was no significant difference in shoot biomass observed compared to the control whatsoever. Application of both types of biochar in combination with soil prebiotic significantly decreased soil basal respiration in comparison with only biochar addition.
