Session Description: The theme of this topical session is to present results on field, lab, and greenhouse scale studies on the impact of biochar additions on crop productivity and yield. In addition, studies that focus on soil nutrient availability, leaching, or retention are also welcome in this session due to their direct implications on agronomic productivity. The goal is to improve our understanding of biochar interactions with agronomic production.
