Oil palm empty fruit bunch biochar and compost as amendment for improvement of polybag-growing media and oil palm seedlings by Radin, Rovica

“…Considering the potential effects of biochar on root growth and shoot:root ratio, the results suggested that 30% (v/v) compost and 1.5% biochar C (w/w) addition with 75% of fertilizer rates was the most promising growing media for oil palm seedling production in the main nursery for optimum seedling growth and reduction in fertiliser usage. Furthermore, nutrient leaching measurement indicates that, EFB biochar significantly retained ammonium-N nutrient (ammonium-N leaching reduced by 46%) over the nursery period, but, have no effects on retention of total nitrate-N, phosphate and Mg2+, while K+ leaching increased with the increasing biochar rates. …”

Modelling the optimal size of silt pits for soil water conservation by Al-shaheen, Husam Hasan Abdulaali

“…The function of a silt pit is to control the runoff, trap and settle down the sediments, increase soil moisture or recharge the groundwater, reduce the effect of slope length and further reduce soil erosion and fertiliser losses. However, what is the optimal size and dimensions of a silt pit to enable the water to reach the farthest roots and empty slowly to release the water over the most extended period? …”
