Abstract

Abstract: 【Objective】A large number of studies have indicated that application of biochar in cropland has significant effects on crop yield due to its unique physical and chemical properties. It is of important significance to quantify the effects of management practices and biochar quality on crop yield by statistical analysis of large sample numbers.【Method】By collecting global relevant published literatures, 97 relative independent studies with 819 paired datasets on biochar’s effects of crop growth were selected. A meta-analysis was undertaken to quantify the effect of biochar characteristics (e.g., raw material, pyrolysis temperature, C/N, pH etc.) and artificial application management practices (e.g., application amount and duration), soil properties (soil texture and pH) on the crop yield improvement.【Result】Results showed that biochar could improve crop yield significantly by 15.0% in average compared with the control. As for crop types, the effect of biochar on crop yield was significantly different: The yield increase of cash crops (25.3%) was significantly higher than that of grain crops (10.0%). The characteristics of biochar had a significant impact on crop yield. Biochar produced with pyrolysis temperature lower than 600℃, pH over 7, and C/N value between 20-300, obtained significant increase in crop yield ranging from 9.2% to 26.6%. Moreover, the improved percentage of crop yield decreased with increase in pyrolysis temperature and biochar C/N. As for different soil textures and acidities, the order of yield-improving effect was clay soil > sandy soil > loamy soil. The yield-improving effect of biochar application for acid soil (29.2%) was 7.9 and 2.5 times of that for neutral and alkaline soil. Under the condition of management practices, biochar application increased crop yield significantly (by 18.0%) at rates less than 10.0 t·hm^-2. However, there was no significant effect on crop yield when the application rate was more than 80.0 t·hm^-2. The response ratio of biochar application on crop yield decreased with increase in the application duration. Six months to two years after biochar application increased crop yield by about 13.4%-17.5%, whereas after more than 2 years, the response ratio reduced to 9.6%.【Conclusion】The effect of biochar on crop yield varied according to variation in biochar quality and application rate and duration. Choosing biochar in specific quality for application can not only achieve sustainable improvement in crop production, but also minimalize the cost and improve economic efficiency according to crop types and soil texture. This result would provide an option for the development of sustainable agricultural management practices.
