Abstract: In order to understand the effect of biochar on the growth of vegetable and soil conservation, the tomato was used as test material, and a field experiment was conducted to study the effects of biochar with different treatments (1 000, 2 000, 3 000, 4 000, 5 000 kg/hm2 ) on tomato growth, yield, quality and soil properties. The results showed that increasing application of biochar could increase tomato yield and total sugar content, reduce soluble acid content. At the same time, the application of biochar could reduce the soil bulk density 4.7%-11.8%, and the soil organic matter content was improved. The soil quality conservation effect was good. The yield of tomato with biochar dosage of 2 000 kg/hm2 was the best, which was 10.52% higher than the control. Treatment with biochar dosage of 4 000 kg/hm2 was the best in improving the soil and tomato quality. |
