Does century-old biochar affect soil interrill erodibility on cropland soils? A study on pre-industrial kiln sites Research Institute for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food
Adding biochar to soils is being advocated to mitigate soil erosion. However, given biochar aging and persistency in soils, the effects of biochar on soil in the long-term are important to investigate yet remain largely unknown. The objective was therefore to determine the long-term effect of biochar on interrill erosion on cropland soils. Experiments were conducted using topsoil from three fields of different textures (silt loam, loam and sandy ...
